Member X 91 Posted January 13, 2016 Hey chaps (and chapesses? ), As I have the inner resolve and mental strength of a WeighWatchers participant in the Cadbury's factory I am considering the Prometheus Poseidon as my next purchase, despite being perpetually skint: http://www.prometheuswatch.com/our-watch-collection/#!/Prometheus-Poseidon-Stainless-Steel-Black-White-Bezel-3500m-Miyota-9015-Automatic-Diver-Watch/p/44051754/category=11326133 http://www.prometheuswatch.com/store/#!/Prometheus-Poseidon-Stainless-Steel-Blue-White-Bezel-3500m-Miyota-9015-Automatic-Diver-Watch/p/44066530/category=11326133 Has anyone got one? I see a lot of love for the Piranha model on this forum and the WUS thread on the Poseidon in the f74 Diver forum has some great wristie shots of both models, but I'm not 100% sure on the sapphire bezel and the AR... $500 is also not a small amount of money, and I'm aware the Fifty Fathoms rep (which is seemingly spot-on and excellent quality) is about that price... Any thoughts are welcome! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NFleischer 4,355 Posted January 13, 2016 I see the price is $600+. $500 was the sale price for the scratched models- they seem to be gone. Nice looking watch, bracelet looks like Omega style. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheSav 2 Posted January 14, 2016 I have had a couple of Prometheus watches. The quality of them is very good Imo. Keep an eye out on watcherecon and you might be lucky enough to pick up a secondhand one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gazzla 23 Posted January 14, 2016 Buy one. The watches, customer service, everything is spot on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Piccolo 673 Posted January 14, 2016 Seems there are a couple listed on WUS at the moment, might be worth a look... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Member X 91 Posted January 14, 2016 Thanks for the replies, chaps although what my wallet really wanted you to say was "Run, run away and don't look back" I think I just have "Haven't bought much in a while and neeeed new toys" syndrome as everything I see I am liking... lol I'm veering towards the various (sister company) Borealis pre-order models now as well Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MoveAlong 23 Posted January 15, 2016 My black dial Piranha is one of the best watches I've owned. It's pretty much flawless! That it was only $345 blows my mind. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think you've posted pictures on here? If so, I have seen them and liked them a lot but the dial is just too busy for me - if it didn't have the minute numbers on it, I think it'd already be on my wrist. Either way, I do have a car to fix and tax so I guess I should get in debt fixing that rather than in debt buying shiny luxuries :( lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MoveAlong 23 Posted January 16, 2016 I think it's safe to say that no matter which Prometheus model you get, it will be fantastic... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

charlesanderika 30 Posted January 22, 2016 I have had the Pirahna, Trireme and both were really well made and good looking watches. I also have the bronze possiedon and can confirm its a great watch too - the bronze with a bit of patina gives a really nice look to it,. It's thicker than the others from them that I've owned due to the water resistance and the super thick crystal gives a nice depth to the watch. All in all I would say that it's a very reasonable price for a very good diver watch. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
