A beautiful combination of natural rubber on the bracelet and a durable titanium case make the Trident from Reactor a sleek and stylish watch for daily wear. Featuring a unidirectional bezel, easy-to-read Arabic numbers, a day/date display at three o'clock, and innovative new Never Dark technology that illuminates the dial 24/7, this striking watch is also water resistant to 660 feet. Situated comfortably against the wrist, the bracelet is a deep black that highlights the color of the dial on the 40-millimeter case. Versatile enough for work or play, the Trident is a suave addition to a gentleman's wardrobe.Reactor Never Darkâ„¢ - the World's Most Advanced Watch Lighting SystemThroughout the history of the wristwatch, designers have struggled with the best method to illuminate the watch face for easy viewing at night. Originally, radium paint was applied, but the radioactive side effects to the workers quickly made this unacceptable. Various phosphourescent compounds have been tried, but most remain visible only a short while in the dark. Electroluminescence was introduced in the '80s, but has the disadvantages of reducing battery life and requiring a button press to activate. Tritium-filled luminous tubes entered the market in the '90s, and while their multi-year illumination makes them a good choice, their relatively low brightness can be difficult to see in partially lit conditions, or immediately after moving from a brightly lit to a dark environment.Starting in 2003, Reactor developed a proprietary method of applying a unique Swiss material called Superluminova that makes our watches the brightest and longest-lasting phosphourescent watches in the world (as verified by independent testing). However, while Superluminova is at least five times brighter than tritium after being charged in the light, that brightness fades to below that of tritium over several hours. As part of our quest to build the best watch possible, we saw a better solution.Never Darkâ„¢ is the first technology to combine the intense...
