I have two other Phoibos timepieces and this is now on the shopping list, I like the blue dial a lot. Very vintage in style. Love it.

Consistent quality in build and design, with excellent pricing. Definitely one of the better options out there. I love the two that I own. Very good looking watch!

phoibos is becoming one of my favorite brands

I have a V. 2 in blue. Probably the prettiest watch I own.

I ordered the Orient Mini Triton (green/orange version) couple of days ago, but after watching this video had to order this black/yellow beauty today as well.

Phoibos with a hint of Black Bay with their design. It looks awesome! I would consider this if I didn't have my Ironclad First light

Tudor Black Bay indeed...

Love.it...i.have the voyager 2 but I'll be buying the burgundy version of this v3. The clasp is my favourite clasp ever...I love it. Simple, comfortable and stylish.

I have the V1 in brown and the V2 in blue. Both are fantastic watches but absolute fingerprint magnets, I’m very glad to see this one is brushed. I like 12hr bezel, may go for the green on this one since it’s such a different dial than anything else in my collection. Depends on the price though, they seem to be going up as they should.

Best looking Phoibos I have seen so far. Really nice.

I just ordered that exact watch. But, I’m out of town for work and it’ll be delivered before I get home. I’m so looking forward to seeing it. Thanks for the review. I didn’t watch any reviews before purchasing that specific model, but your review definitely makes me want to see it even more. I just went off of Phoibos’ reputation before I ordered.

Thnaks for the subtitles, help a lot, well for me. greetings

Just ordered mine in red. This watch is a stunner...

I got the 40 mm V1 and it works even on my 6 inch flat wrist. Great watch, i'm totally torn between black, red or the white MOP dial

I own two V2s (green and copper) and a grey Titanium Apollo. Great brand. Huge value. Not sure if I will add another but I like the light blue and the yellow V3. 👍

This brand makes really good watches all the way around. I own 3 so far and will be getting this in the mother of pearl or the black dial. I just really wish they would use a more premium movement. I like that they don't cost that much but I have said it before and i will again, iwould gladly pay more for a better movement.

Is that dial glossy, or sumburst or both? Looks amazing, you video sold one for me!

Ordered the green. The blue looks amazing too.

Really love that gilt looking dial. Great specs for the price. I don't have any experience with Phoibos, but their designs are very appealing. Thanks for the video Chris!

I adore those colors in any brand that uses it.

$309-$350 and they have 15% off early bird pricing. I paid $262.65 for the red one.

Looks like they covered all the bases on this one and much more watch than you can get from Orient or Seiko.

Hi. Thanks for the review. I really like that suave black with gold highlights dial. I tried to search for the watch you are wearing in this vid but came up with nothing for 'Maramusi Watch with Leju Perez movement' - perhaps I've got that a bit wrong?!

They have had a couple of really cool release lately.… I swore off buying NH movements for a while(too many in my collection)…I went with the last release, The Cracken, and it is on order now…it has a highbeat Miyota 9015. Thanks Chris.

Looks Awesome! Needs a Miyota 9000 series - thinner, high Beat, better build quality, Seiko is Capable of selling better movements to all these microbrands, the only way they will is if this microbrands stop buying the NH series and switch to the Miyotas and some of the lesser known Swiss autos - Ronda R150 for example - come on Micro brand land! Force Seiko's hand I'm not asking for a $500 Spring Drive, but maybe a 6R35 or maybe even a 6L movement, hey, the r & d is all ready paid for and from where I'm sitting - Seiko should be scared $hi+!*~~ of some these microbrands / independent brands - maybe they should look back at 1969 and see that history could Repeat itself, only this time, they're the sleeping giant.

@@donaldhardgrove3620 Agree with everything you said… However, Seiko movements are thick across the board. There’s six our movements or as thick as the NH movements… And a 6L Movement is hundreds and hundreds of dollars. There chronograph movement is thick as brick…and None of them are high beat…The Miyota 9000 series is really all that is out the As far as reliable, high beat, small/thin movements(under $100)…Until you get to the ETA/Sellita movements…They start at well over $150-200

Constant quality update

If you have more than one index, you have indices. If you have more than one vortex, you have vortices. If you have more than one codex, you have codices. If you have more than one Rolex, you have watch disease!

Whoever chose to put red days on a black date wheel hasnt helped sell this to me - id much rather have a more legible dial, or indeed no date wheel at all. That minor gripe aside, there is a lot to like here. As you say this is a great colour way for every day, but there are also a couple of brighter 'fun' dials (the black and yellow!) Great video as always - looking forward to the next.

It's great!!

I still haven’t ventured into phoibus yet. Maybe I should now

I just ordered the 🍋

Nice. Lug width? 20mm?

Very nice 👌👍

Wouldve been nice if they upgraded the movement

im on watch hunting spree lately and this brand has really attractive price on their watches might check on them later

Said long ago Phoibos is on the right track, getting better and better. Plus their prices are spot on always. Kudos.

Whats the watch you were wearing? Mara mucy you said?

You said you'd come back to the red date, but didn't I don't think. Or perhaps I missed it. Bit hard to read red on black?

I think I said it's very light it's hard to read because of the red date black background black dial However I like that because I generally don't like a dial with a date so less I see it the better

Not sure Chris about decreasing 300m down to 200 m… Oh well, just can’t fill the bath up to the top anymore!🤣👍🏼

Tey've really stepped up in a coupla years from tin foil quartz subs to microbrand royalty ...like San Martin are trying to.

😁

Never have seen this brand before, at least I don't think I have. Might be a brand to look in to. Not bad, good solid movement, great lume.

Beautiful but too tall for my taste.
