Phoibos Eagle Ray No DatevsOrient Bambino Version 1

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Eagle Ray No Date for its value at the price point. One owner notes the watch is a great purchase with no regrets, and is unbothered by its lume. The Phoibos Eagle Ray No Date features a 41mm steel case and a Miyota 9015 automatic movement with a 42-hour power reserve. However, one owner received a non-working watch and reported difficulty obtaining a refund, citing horrible customer service. On balance, owners rate the Phoibos Eagle Ray No Date well for its value, though customer service experiences can vary.

The Orient Bambino Version 1 is widely praised as an exceptional value dress watch with a timeless aesthetic, appreciated for its automatic movement and quality under $150. Owners consistently highlight its smart, quintessential dress watch look, with Roman numeral and index markers being a particular point of admiration. Some reviewers note the dial has a greenish/blueish tint rather than pure white, and the winding motion is described as a little rough. Accuracy is reported as very good, with one owner seeing +1 second per day. While the design is praised, some find its size slightly large for a dress watch, and one owner found rotor noise and size bothersome. Stock straps are frequently mentioned as a drawback, described as plasticky, non-tapering, or not to taste. Some owners suggest better value can be found elsewhere, citing mineral crystal and non-hacking, non-handwinding movement as drawbacks.
