Swiss watchmaker Luminox has announced the release of its LIMITED-EDITION Red Bull Ampol LM3501.ABR.N timepiece, marking a new collaboration with one of Australia’s premier motorsport teams. The announcement comes as Luminox serves as the official Timing Partner of Red Bull Ampol Racing.

Luminox is known as the timepiece of choice for high-profile adventurers and professionals operating in demanding conditions. The brand’s collaborations include global outdoor adventure icon Bear Grylls, the Icelandic Association for Search and Rescue (ICE-SAR), elite military and law enforcement units, fighter jet pilots, and professional divers worldwide.

The company’s tritium gas tube technology sets it apart from conventional luminosity systems that require external light sources or manual activation. This self-powered approach ensures consistent visibility regardless of environmental conditions, supporting the brand’s “Always Visible” philosophy.

The new timepiece builds upon Luminox’s established 3500 Series platform, incorporating design elements that pay homage to the high-performance world of Australian motorsport. With only 300 pieces available globally, the watch targets collectors and motorsport enthusiasts seeking a blend of functionality and racing heritage.

The LM3501.ABR.N features a robust 45mm CARBONOX™ case paired with a unidirectional diving bezel, offering 200 meters of water resistance suitable for various environments. The watch’s aesthetic draws heavily from Red Bull Ampol Racing’s signature colourway, featuring a matte navy blue dial, bezel, and rubber strap.

Design details include high-contrast white numerals for enhanced daytime readability, while red and yellow accents reference the iconic Red Bull branding. A distinctive red second hand and yellow bezel markings complete the motorsport-inspired visual package.

The timepiece incorporates Luminox’s proprietary Light Technology (LLT), providing self-powered illumination guaranteed to function continuously for up to 25 years without requiring external charging or battery replacement. This technology has established Luminox as a preferred choice among military units and professional adventurers globally.

The collaboration extends beyond mere branding, representing an alignment between Luminox and Ampol, Australia’s leading fuel and energy provider. As co-title sponsor of Red Bull Ampol Racing, Ampol’s partnership with the Swiss watchmaker reflects shared commitments to endurance, innovation, and performance excellence in competitive motorsport.

The watch serves as both a functional timepiece and a tribute to the legacy of Australian motorsport, combining Swiss watchmaking precision with the dynamic energy of professional racing.

The Red Bull Ampol LM3501.ABR.N Limited Edition retails for RM3,360 in Malaysia. The watch features hardened mineral glass, quartz movement, and includes standard date functionality alongside its diving bezel capability.

Malaysian consumers can purchase the timepiece at several retail locations, including Parkson One Utama, Parkson Pavilion KL, SOGO KL, SOGO Central I-City in Shah Alam, and SOGO Mid Valley Southkey. Additional authorised watch retailers will also carry the limited edition model.
