What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Bell & Ross BR-05 SKELETON GOLD

The Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Gold is praised for its distinctive and attractive design, warm color, intricate skeletonized movement, and balanced 40mm wearability. However, its price, particularly at over $30,000, is widely considered a significant drawback, especially given its Sellita SW300-based movement. Some reviewers and owners note the movement's 38-hour power reserve as a potential drawback for enthusiasts. Overall, owners and reviewers find the Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Gold to be a visually striking watch, but its high price point relative to its movement is a consistent point of contention.

From video reviewers

The case finishing and skeletonized dial are highly praised. The 38-hour power reserve is a point of concern.

Phoibos Voyager

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Voyager for its attractive MOP dial and good overall finishing, along with its fun octopus logo. However, reviewers and owners alike note that the red lettering on the red date wheel is illegible, and one owner reports the 13.5mm thick case can be prone to accidental knocks. On balance, owners rate the Phoibos Voyager highly for its attractive dial and finishing at the price point.
