Anyone else a bit confused why the minute hand lume is a different colour?

Not uncommon, Omega also does that.

I would assume that it’s so you can see how long you’ve been diving for by just the quickest of glances. Would still work with single colour but you’d need to look for which hand is longer, which takes your brain longer to do.

Totally academic when you don’t even get your watch wet, let alone dive. lol

That’s a good point, it would make it instantly obvious which hand matters.

Also academic because it doesn’t have a lume pip on the bezel, so it’s not a dive watch.

There is also that. Forgot about that. PMSL.

You can tell I won’t be needing that. 🤪

Annoyingly Tag & Omega seem to be keen on doing this. I for one cannot stand it & messes with my fondness for things to match.
