Oceanus OCWS1000A Atomic Solar See

Don't let the relatively simple design of one's Oceanus fool you. The climbing tide of chronographic features built into its three-ounce titanium case are, effectively, a bit staggering. But so are its price tag and some of its much more intricate functions.

1st off, the extremely pretty black and silver face sports three mini-dials. Just about every motor controls a movement about the see face -- the sweep second hand, the chronograph, planet time, 24-hour time and date display.

Whilst the Oceanus name may possibly suggest that's an amazing diving see, it surprisingly can only resist water up to 50 meters.

But that's nearly excusable due to the fact that's jewelry finest used above sea level. Its planet clock perform lets you check recent situations in 27 cities and 29 time zones. If you are traveling out within your time zone, some taps on 1 unique within the 4 control buttons on either side within the see will toggle a planet time with your normal home city setting. The 1/20th second stopwatch measures elapsed time up to 59 minutes, and 59.99 seconds. Much too bad it doesn't have a memory to handle far more than 1 unique lap. We had to write down every single lap time just prior to restarting the timer. See those clumsy fingers much too -- push the wrong button along along with the stopwatch quickly resets to zero. Its tachymeter functionality used to convert time intervals to speed or rates of events is etched close to the rim of one's analog face. But the silver on silver markings - no doubt designed with cosmetics additional than functionality in mind -- are far more tough to read than any other see we tested.

Instantly immediately after putting on and making use of the Oceanus OCWS1000A for a week, its overall usefulness begins to pale - in particular inside the face of other timepieces (like the Casio) that are cheaper and far easier to run.
