Christopher Ward C60 Sapphire EdgevsPhoibos Apollo Titanium

Owners widely praise the Christopher Ward C60 Sapphire Edge for its innovative deep blue sapphire dial, which is considered superior to other transparent dial executions, and its slim, ergonomic 42mm case. The lumed rubber strap is also a frequently highlighted feature, contributing to the watch's homogeneous luminosity and "damn cool" aesthetic. The watch is noted for offering incredible value, with a Sellita SW300-1 movement providing a 56-hour power reserve and 60ATM water resistance. However, one owner reported the sapphire dial cracked from the inside during regular use, and the brand denied warranty repair for this issue. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Christopher Ward C60 Sapphire Edge highly for its striking dial execution and innovative features at its price point.

The Phoibos Apollo Titanium Dark Matter Blue is described as beautiful and unique, with one owner noting it as their first Chinese watch. One owner reports small marks on the case, bracelet, bezel, and case back, but otherwise finds the watch in very good condition. On balance, owners find the Phoibos Apollo Titanium to be a visually appealing and unique timepiece.
