Isobrite ISO313 Valor Series Black and Yellow T100 Watch Black Polyurethane Band

ISOBRITE T-100 valor (and Eclipse Series) - the best watch currently available under $500. I had written a great review about the blue version of this watch but after a week decided it was just a little to fashion/blingy/flashy/toy like and maybe cheap looking as I kept thinking about how I was wearing a plastic watch. I loved the blue tritium though just wished it was a white or grey face instead. I got this one to replace it because I love the T100 Tritium- there's nothing better looking at night by any other watch maker (except Ball or Deep Blue) that I've found that can compare. The Tawatec MkII E.O. Diver with blue tritium was about 2/3rds as bright as the Blue Valor so I went for this Yellow Valor to discover it is somewhere between green and blue in brightness and the daylight yellow face is thankfully not sparkly (no circular brush effect) which looks much better with yellow (gold anodized crown is pretty lame unfortunately but everything else seems to go together o.k. a gunmetal grey tone would be best with the yellow I guess but......) The poly band is extremely light and comfortable in fact I think this is the lightest watch I own and barely notice its on. The yellow tritium when it's dark enough to see....because the tritium is visible while you can still see the dial in dim light, is very visible especially in total darkness making this a great watch in any lighting situation even murky water or dense smoke. This review is being written after only owning a week and will update in the future.

The actual watch box arrived open on one side. The tape had torn some paper off the box so how would seller think anyone could miss that? I’m returning this the same day I received it as I don’t know how old it is and the minute and hour hands appear noticeably slimmer than hour markers. Easy to see hour markers in the dark, but kinda difficult to see what time it is.

Holding off for a better review until I can actually wear the watch. I need to remove at least two links in the stainless steel band. So the watch came with a you tube video address to walk me through the adjustment. That video does not exist. Went to their website for information on how to adjust the band. Nothing. Really?Went to two watch places to have them adjust it, and neither one of them could figure it out. Very disappointed that something so fundamentally simple should be such a nightmare.Watch looks great sitting on my dresser. Maybe someday I’ll actually get to wear my $500 watch....

Was cautious about buying this watch as I am a big fan of Luminox. This watch exceeded expectations and I wear this all the time (if I'm not wearing the second Armourlite I bought)The illumination is definitely brighter than the T25 on the Luminox and the watch keeps good time.

O.K. my first Tritium watch, it's very bright. As in you can see the glow through light bed covers. Also very comfortable to wear and so far keeps accurate time. No scratches yet, so it seems pretty robust and has survived swimming and hot showers, as it should

A nice light watch.
