What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Phoibos Leviathan

Owners widely report the Phoibos Leviathan offers a vintage experience at an affordable price due to its proportions and conservative design. However, the watch is considered well-made and sturdy but quite heavy, with a 45mm x 54mm lug-to-lug case and a 15.5mm thickness, leading some owners to replace the stock band. On balance, owners rate the Phoibos Leviathan highly for its vintage feel and sturdy build at its price point.

From video reviewers

The watch features 500m water resistance and a Seiko NH35 automatic movement. The case size is a point of contention, with reviewers noting it is substantial and may overwhelm smaller wrists, while others highlight a 40mm case size as an improvement.

Zelos Great White 43

Owners widely praise the Zelos Great White 43's "unbelievable" and "amazing" lume, particularly on the carbon and Frost variants. The Miyota 9015 movement and 300m water resistance are noted features. Some owners find the 43mm size large, while others report it wears well. Opinions are divided on colorways, with some disappointed by the absence of a "Nebula" option and others finding the "Arctic" version striking. Overall, owners rate the Zelos Great White 43 highly for its exceptional lume and robust specifications at the price point.
