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 No Date

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.

From video reviewers

The Phoibos Eagle Ray No Date features a high-beat Miyota 9015 movement, which is a notable strength. A weakness of the watch is its relatively weak lume brightness. Reviewers disagree on whether the added features of the Ceramic model justify the extra cost, with one reviewer finding it worth the extra cost and another noting it's a trade-off for the No Date model.

Zelos Blacktip 41

The Zelos Blacktip 41 is widely praised for its exceptional quality and value, featuring a titanium case, sapphire crystal, and a reliable Miyota 9015 movement. Owners and reviewers highlight its well-proportioned 41mm case with strong ergonomics, a 47.5mm lug-to-lug, and a 11.5mm thickness, making it a comfortable diver for many. The watch boasts eye-catching dials with grained textures and degrade effects, complemented by large applied indices, a lume-filled crown, and strong two-tone lume. The bezel action is described as having firm clicks with a slight return. The Miyota 9015 movement provides near-COSC accuracy and a 200m water resistance. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Zelos Blacktip 41 highly for its superb value and well-executed dive watch features at its price point.
