Hey! Yeah, you pal! I saw you checking out those Prometheus watches. They’re nice, aren’t they? I’ve handled several, and they’re as nice in person as they are in the photos. Lucky for you, the WIS community has declared August 10th to be microbrand day, and Prometheus is celebrating.
Prometheus is a brand that I started working with pretty early on in my watch writing career here at WWR. While we may not have gone hands-on with their products for a little bit now, I have definitely kept tabs on what the company is producing. Their latest effort is going to be a redesign of the Prometheus Manta Ray.
Prometheus is a brand that produces nice looking serious dive watches at affordable price points. Through January 31, 2015, they have a pre-order opportunity for their newest dive watch, the Prometheus Poseidon. This is a serious (read overkill) automatic dive watch, water resistant to 3,500 meters with a helium escape valve and several other bells and whistles.
Divers love their orange watches. Well, at least some of them do, since most divers are offered in a variation with an orange dial. According to Doxa, they were the first to use orange as a way to make the dial more readable in low light situations, way back in 1966 (hey, it is as old as I am). But I don’t have over $2,000 for a dive watch, and with the wide range of watches out there, the Prometheus Piranha makes a strong case for being a great choice under $500.
Now that the end of the year is coming along, we are starting to see more sales and deals popping up. The latest of these comes from Prometheus, who is offering up to a 36% discount on a few of their watches.
It feels like it has been quite some time since I wrote about a dive watch (Matt has been covering those more as of late), and I know it has been a good long while since we had Prometheus on our pages. We will address both of those lapses with a talk about the Prometheus Piranha.
Vintage dive watches always seem to be a popular category, and we’ve seen quite a few hit the market in the last year or so. Many of these draw inspiration from the famous Blancpain Fifty Fathoms (is there something to link to for this) which first appeared in 1953. This is the precise model the latest watch from Prometheus draws from.
I just caught wind of this new model from Prometheus, and I have to say, I”m rather intrigued. Can…
I just saw this come in from our friends over at Prometheus, and I thought I”d pass it along to…
