The quest for a self winding watch has led me to two candidates. The number one candidate seemed to pricey for most folks here. I here you. The Marathon was on the top end of my budget so I started searching for a lower price watch that was just as well made. A tall order considering the Marathons build quality.
This search has taken 2 years and I was unable to find anything close to my required specs for under $700 dollars, that is until now.
Prometheus Watch Company has come out with a self winding, tritium, hack-able (stop second hand with stem out for synchronizing several watches or exact time), 300 meters, Seiko R615 movement, Tritium on second hand, 316L stainless. The watch also has a wind up capable stem for reserve power and will run 50 hours without moving. The band will pop open to a larger setting to be worn over a coat or wet-suit.
This watch has some solid features seen only in much more expensive watches. The no battery feature makes it the perfect choice for shtf. I know the current watch I have will just fail when the battery dies. I get no warning before my watch quits.
Im going to order one of these watches and I will do a review after I have worn it for a few days. Ill get back to you soon. If you have ever worn a Tritium watch you would understand why folks like them so much.
