What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Phoibos Apollo

The Phoibos Apollo is widely praised for its unique design, outstanding lume, and lightweight titanium build, with owners highlighting its comfortable 41mm wearability and value powered by a Miyota 9015 movement. Some find the "rocket" hand design hinders quick time-telling, and the bracelet does not taper. A few owners consider its price point high relative to other titanium and bronze offerings. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Apollo highly for its distinctive aesthetic and excellent lume at the price.

Yema Skin Diver CMM.20

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Yema Skin Diver CMM.20 for its vintage aesthetic, 39mm-39.5mm case size, and the in-house CMM.20 micro-rotor movement. The watch features a textured cream dial, sharp applied indices, and a satisfyingly over-engineered push-to-turn bi-directional bezel. The fully brushed bracelet with toolless micro-adjust clasp is highlighted as a significant improvement, though some note its extended lug-to-lug may challenge smaller wrists. Accuracy figures range from -3/+7 seconds per day to erratic results between 0 and -10 seconds per day, with a 70-hour power reserve. Some owners express concerns about the brand's QC reputation and the micro-rotor movement's performance, while one reviewer noted questionable finishing on a prototype's hour hand and a rattly clasp. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Yema Skin Diver CMM.20 highly for its vintage styling and improved bracelet at the price.

From video reviewers

The sapphire bezel insert and in-house CMM.20 movement are noted strengths. Reviewers questioned the value proposition compared to other Yema models.
