Review of the Prometheus Ocean Diver

Titanium has a lower heat capacity than steel, so it feels 'warmer' when worn, and has a bronze-tinted color that I quite like. In fact, the combination of sapphire and titanium is a personal favorite for my watches. Note, however, that titanium's unmatched strength-to-weight ratio does not mean su***ce hardness; in fact titanium scuffs and scratches more easily than stainless steel, so it won't look new very long. That seems appropriate for a tool watch like this, but it's something to consider pre-purchase. On the plus side, if you're nickle sensitive and can't wear steel, titanium is hypo-allergenic.The 60-click bezel is 12-sided and also made of titanium. The tritium insert in the pip means it's useful in the dark, but the smooth finish makes it hard to grip and turn when wet. They're hinged by vertical pins, yielding a definite, firm click, and slightly unusual action. Like the crown, they are ion-plated black for a low-key color accent.The bracelet is another highlight. Solid end links and solid links with an up-and-down link design; it's extremely comfortable and very well matched to the watch.As you'd expect, nighttime visibility is first rate with readability enhanced by max-brightness green tubes around the dial, and an orange tube at 12 o'clock for orientation. Simple and effective. It would be nice if you could read the chronograph, day, or date at night, but that's probably impossible using tubes.Overall, this is far and away my favorite watch from Luminox. It's light, very functional, and it has a nicely detailed design and construction.
