    Man, so on point here! I have this one with the abalone dial- GORGEOUS is not enough to describe it. Built tremendously, everything works so fine, bezel is solid, a serious tool. Don’t have any issues at all.
    True, alignment is a must. Period.

    The Twodr and Omayger look identical to the Tudor and Omega we have here in Europe. Love the channel by the way, I didn’t realise you had a watch channel, I bought a pair of Warfedale Evo 4.1’s after seeing your review and love them so thanks very much and keep up the good work!

    I love mine, I did switch the strap to a leather one with blue stitching, which looks great.

  • @SpaceMonkey13X
    @SpaceMonkey13X ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Totally agree. In fact, when I was getting into watches I saw your video on the Phoibos Proteus and decided on buying a Wavemaster with the green dial. I love it.
    Plus the Octopus logo was in theme with my appreciation of the Cthulhu and Kraken creatures.
    Oh and the movie is Ghostbusters of course.

    Hi, I'm new to this channel but im really enjoying it. I'm a huge Phoibos fan ..currently have the original quartz sunny homage, the Oceanmaster 1000m (superb!), Blue wave master, forged carbon with aged steel case Proteus, white frost Proteus, grey dial kracken, blue leviathan, black sunray voyager, Tiffany blue voyager 2, eagle ray GMT quartz, ...think that's it...and I love them all!!!! I have zelos, helm, Seiko, wicked watch co, citizen, orient etc but Phoibos designs are my favourite watches. The SWC diver is a decent seamaster alternative...I have that watch in green...love it.

  • @blue.5058
    @blue.5058 ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Always liked the Phoibos watches, but was kind of scared away from them because of the price (especially when you can get essentially the same watch with the same movement for less).
    If the consistency with the movement regulation and time accuracy are better with Phoibos, I might have to reconsider them as a potential choice.

  • @willmarshall4685
    @willmarshall4685 ปีที่แล้ว

    I go back and forth on this brand. That octopus is huge. You have to buy into to the branding and I don’t know if I do. Great channel. I’m fascinated by the animation at the beginning of each video. Is that your work?

    This is an old video, but, may I recommend checking out Deep Blue watches. They are big and chunky, built for professional divers, and great value. Specifically the Juggernaut. Swiss Automatic, many dial choices, bracelet/strap choices.

      @@Bertminator I don’t disagree that they aren’t “cheap”. That being said, when compared to the watches these brands are emulating…. It’s all relative. To me, a cheap watch is a Casio. Unless something spectacular happens, I’ll never pay $300 for a watch.

    I know it's stupid but I can't get past the Phoibus logo on the dial. Sold the first one I got (Great Wall) after a month. Later I picked up a Kraken because it checks so many boxes of watches I like, wore it twice and now it sits in the watch case staring at me. Can't stand the octopus but still a good review 👍🏽 Given.
