Dear All,

 This is an announcement to inform you about several Light Tubes (LLT’s) changes for select Luminox models. 

Why a change of LLT’s?

Our supplier for the Light Tubes changed their pricing-model. In order to maintain our ex-factory prices stable, we had to change the colors of LLT for some of our watches.

 Overview 

We would like to highlight the following:

-         NOT all models are being affected by the changes, only some select models/series

-         Most of the changes are ICE BLUE LLT’s being replaced by GREEN LLT’s

-         In some cases, GREEN LLT’s are being replaced by ORANGE LLT’s

-         Depending on models, changes may affect LLT’s positioned on the dial and/or the hands and/or the bezel

The performance of GREEN LLT’s and ICE BLUE LLT’s are similar in terms of visibility. As a matter of fact, GREEN LLT’s are even more visible than ICE BLUE LLT’s when measured in “air” environment, and almost as visible when measured in “water” environment.

What does it mean for orders and shipping?

-         For the models where a change of LLT is taking place, we are adding the letter “.L” to the reference number.

For example: model XS.3501 will become XS.3501.L. We will use this new reference number for all ordering and on all shipping documents. See attachment list).

-         We will make the changes as “running changes”, whenever appropriate per reference. We expect the changes to happen between end of November 2017 and May 2018, depending on models.

-         During a certain period, we understand end-consumers might encounter both versions of the same model. Similarly, distributors and retailers might have stock of both versions. We recommend sales staff to be trained accordingly.

-         Please be aware that the EAN bar code (ASINS) has changed as well. Please update your documents and data.

What does it mean for marketing and communications?

-         For all consumer-facing communications, we will continue referring to our models as per their existing reference number. For example on advertisement, model XS.3501 will remain presented as XS.3501 (and not: XS.3501.L)

-         All night-shots will be updated according to the changes and available for download on our data center at early stage in 2018.

-         The 2018 Catalogue (available March 2018) will already include all LLT changes. All other communication tools will also be updated accordingly.

-         A night-shot overview tool, comparing “current model VS new .L model”, will be provided at early stage in 2018

 Wrap up

-         To reiterate, these changes of LLT’s do NOT translate into any ex-factory price increase of our watches.

-         Similarly, these changes do NOT affect whatsoever the night-visibility performance of our watches.

-         Change of LLT’s colors… but of course: ALWAYS VISIBLE 

We appreciate your support in this transition process.

With best regards,

 Your Luminox Team

2017-11-17 Luminox来信：关于部分型号氚光管改变的通知

大家好:

在此我们想通知大家Luminox部分型号手表的氚光管将进行变更。

为什么要变更？

我们的氚光管供应商改变了他们的定价模式。为了保持我们出厂价格的稳定，我们不得不改变我们的一些手表氚光管的颜色

概览

-     不是所有的型号都受到氚光管变换的影响，只有一些选择的型号/系列。

-     大部分型号是将冰蓝色氚光管替换为绿色氚光管

-     有些型号是将绿色氚光管替换为橙色氚光管

-    根据不同型号的设计，氚光管颜色的替换可能会影响到氚光管在表字面/或表针/或外齿盘的位置。

绿色LLT和冰蓝色LLT在可视性方面是相似的。事实上，绿色LLT 比冰蓝色LLT更亮，无论是在空中，还是在水下。

LLT的变更对于订单和发货意味着什么？

-   对于LLT被替换了的手表，我们会在型号后面标注“.L”。

例如: XS.3501 将变为 XS.3501.L.我们将在所有订单文件及货运文件中使用新的型号。请见附件列表。

-   这次LLT的替换将是一个“持续渐进式替换”，有需要我们就会适时替换。我们预计这些变化将在2017年11月底到2018年5月之间发生，具体取决于手表型号。 

-   在一定时期内，我们需要理解消费者可能会遇到同一各型号的两个版本。同样，代理商和零售商可能也会出现同一型号两个版本的库存。我们建议销售人员应该接受相应的培训。 

-   请注意，EAN条型码也将改变。请更新你们的文档和数据。

LLT的变更对于营销和宣传意味着什么？

-  对于所有面向消费者的宣传，我们将继续参照现有的型号。例如广告，XS.3501仍将作为XS.3501宣传（不是：XS.3501.L） 

-  所有夜光图将按照氚光管的变换进行更新，并可在2018年早些时候从我们数据中心下载。

-   2018年目录册（于2018年3月发布）将体现所有氚光管的变更。所有宣传物料也将相应更新。 

-   夜光效果展示道具也将在2018年早些时候提供，并标示为“新.L型号”。

总结

-   再次重申，这些LLT的变换不被理解为我们手表出厂价的增加。 

-   同样，这些变化将不影响Luminox手表的夜光功能。

-   氚光管只是颜色变换….当然：永远可视。

我们感谢大家在这一过渡过程中给予的支持。

Your Luminox Team
