What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Phoibos Wave Master GMT

The Phoibos Wave Master GMT is widely praised for its attractive design, comfortable 20mm tapering bracelet, and wearability on a 7" wrist, with owners finding it a strong value proposition at $220. Some minor finishing flaws, such as slightly crooked markers and off-center dial numbers, are noted by one owner, while accuracy averages around 5-10 seconds over two weeks. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Wave Master GMT highly for its distinctive design and comfortable wearability at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Wave Master GMT's notable feature is its 200M water resistance. A drawback is the rattle of the bracelet. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer noting its significant weight for a 39.5mm case diameter, but the other reviewer doesn't mention any specific weaknesses or trade-offs.

Straton Yacht Racer Quartz

Owners report the Straton Yacht Racer Quartz is in excellent condition with flawless sapphire crystal and lumed bezel, and some find the 42mm case a bit wide. Reviewers praise the Straton Yacht Racer Quartz as a fun, colorful, and quirky chronograph offering exceptional value under $300 with a retro design and a reliable Miyota quartz movement. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Straton Yacht Racer Quartz highly for its exceptional value and retro design.
