What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Phoibos Eagle Ray Date

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Eagle Ray Date's design and value, with one owner specifically noting the attractive logo and another finding it well-made for its price. The watch features a 41mm case, a ceramic bezel, and a date window at 6 o'clock, powered by a Miyota 9015 automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve. One owner reported receiving a non-functional unit and experiencing poor customer service. On balance, owners value the Phoibos Eagle Ray Date for its design and price point, despite a reported instance of a defective unit and customer service issues.

Phoibos Narwhal

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Narwhal's 38mm size and slim 11.5mm height for a 200m diver, noting it wears well on smaller wrists and its case shape resembles an integrated bracelet. The aventurine and Howlite dials are described as captivating, and some appreciate the contrast finishing and retro looks. However, some owners criticize misaligned markers and a tilted date window, with one owner finding the hands thick and popsicle-style. The value proposition is debated, with some finding it a good buy at $390 but others considering $480-$490 too much due to a slabby design and difficult-to-size bracelet. On balance, owners find the Phoibos Narwhal appealing for its design and wearability, though quality control and pricing are points of contention for some.

From video reviewers

The unique stone dial is a significant strength. The bracelet's refinement is a weakness. Reviewers disagree on the dial's appeal, with one highlighting its sunburst effect and applied indices, while another focuses on the natural stone variation.
