The Oceanus OCWM800TBA

In case you couldn’t tell, the above statement is from a recent press release direct from Oceanus. The release outlines the newest addition to their highly capable globetrotting line up; the OCWM800TBA-1A. I have spent over a month with this watch, and while I find the marketing speak cheesy, it is surprisingly accurate. As far as multifunction watches are concerned, Oceanus has created a whole new breed.Atomic 5-band timekeepingSolar powerWorld timeAlarm clockReverse countdown times with second handChronographTitanium case and braceletSapphire crystal with anti-reflective coatingAfter spending some time with the watch on my wrist I realized that Oceanus watches have few peers. Oceanus has built a brand on geeky-gone-classy watches that have traded pocket protectors for cuff links, mountain dew for a fine glass of scotch. Their nice bell & ross seem to ignore typical watch archetypes like “tough” or “advanced” to become something different, something exciting. The M800 is very well built, with strong lines and a hint of classic design. While it might be the technology inside the my bell & ross that brings you to the table, it is the looks that will likely seal the deal. The M800 is a mix of crisp design and function that melds together on your wrist.The CaseCrafted from titanium the case is thin, crisp and sculpted to fit snuggly on a wrist. This is a tech watch yet Oceanus has forgone the screen and chose to display much of the information on the chapter ring and the chronograph registers. The highly legible and yet informative dial does not feel cluttered while providing all of the information for the watches many functions. The right dial at three o’clock is for the day as well as the function information.Let me introduce a new model to the Oceanus line up, the OCWM800TBA-1A Super Chronograph. The M800 features everything you would expect from Oceanus in an attractive package designed to compliment the avid traveler in both function and form. “Oceanus is ready to take on the high seas with the newest addition to the luxurious men’s collection, the Super Chronograph OCWM800TBA-1A.
