Great watch! It could have been perfect, if 10 more minutes were put into Quality control during assembly. The bezel does not line up, and the edge of the bezel is razor sharp.
And bezel movement is sloppy.
Other than that, Great watch. The glow is good but not as bright as my H3 Tactical(also a T25). Maybe the swiss sell dimmer vials to outsiders.
Good weight, good size and good fit(after I removed all of the links) on my 6.5" wrist.
Anyway, I'm very happy with this watch!
Congrats! The yellow looks really sharp. I have one in blue and it really seems well built. Haven't noticed any problems with the bezel, though, mine has pretty tight movement. The case and bracelet are most impressive.
Every day the thought for this watch becomes stronger in my mind!
I think it's a great VFM!
Wear it in good health and don't forget to post more photos!
Short report on accuracy, It's been on my wrist for a bit over 30 hours, and is holding better than one second.
Great looking watch, and impressive accuracy! Could you do me a favor and measure the thickness of the Jellyfish,and post the result? In reviews, I've seen everything between 13mm and 14.6mm. The specs. on the Prometheus website don't seem to list thickness at all. I sent Carlos an e-mail asking for the thickness 4-5 days ago, and haven't heard back. I guess he's out nailing down the final details on the Manta Ray!Originally Posted by JoeTritium
Hi Ed,
I did reply you 4 days ago. Could it be email got into spam?
Hi Ed,
Thickness of the Jellyfish is 14.6mm.
Same thing for me with my black Jellyfish. This looks like one tough watch. As for the bezel, mine isn't sharp at all and turns like a charm. Once I accepted the fact that a 90-click bezel was good enough, I've had no issues using for timing functions (i.e.: bbq'ing).
One of the few things that bug me about the Jellyfish is the clasp. Because of the diver's extension, the 4th micro adjustment holes can't be used as shipped from Prometheus. I realize it's a quick dremel fix, but it's one of those details than should've been addressed by QC.
Another small gripe about the Jellyfish is the finish of the case lugs and the SEL. The lugs are machines in a squarish finish while the SELs are a smooth curve. The result is that the bracelet looks like an after market piece attached to the watch.
I guess at this price range I expected a little more attention to details, but this is not enough to detract me from the Jellyfish. This is a beautiful nice big chunk of manly stainless steel with glow anytime Tritium. Whatever I'm wearing during the day, I tend to switch to my Jellyfish in the evening if I wasn't wearing it that day. You gotta love that Tritium!
Regards,
Jerome

It must have gotten lost in the cloud Carlos, since it didn't make it to my e-mail,including spam/junk. It's all good though, since I got the answer!
Mine is 13.8176 mm thick.
60 hour update! 4 seconds fast. Now I'm thinking Prometheus has found a way to make a quartz movement sweep!LOL.
Over the last few years I've owned Three ETA 2824-2 and a ETA2892-2, two of these were new and two were used. None of them held better than 8 seconds a day.
Seiko is one badazz movement maker!!
And a big thank you to Carlos for choosing the 6R15!
And the lume shot!
