Phoibos
Good quality microbrand, a few things could be improved but over all excellent, I have a collection of 33 watches this is not inferior to the ones of a similar price and betters some more expensive ones.

Quality without the hefty price tag
This watch makes me wonder why I bother with Seiko anymore. Very well made watch with high end specs. Sapphire Glass, Ceramic bezel, screw down crown, engineer bracelet, wave pattern dial, superb case back octopus logo. Seiko seem to have become greedy lately with what they charge. If Seiko were too release a watch with these specs you would easily be paying double. This is my 3rd Phoibos now and look forward to future releases. Truly awesome watch.

Heavy and thick
It has the quality and solid feel but my main concern is the thickness of it, it will be a great watch for the summer, £250 can get a fair amount of choices in the market.

Heavy, high quality watch.
I was looking for yet another dive watch to add to my collection after flipping a few of my cheaper watches. I fancied a Seiko but every time I see something I like it's way overpriced for what you get.I knew of the brand Phoibos and this caught my eye with its unusual looks and high specification. After watching a few favourable reviews I ordered one with the nh35a date. It's a fair chunk of steel to carry around but it's comfortable once sized up coming in at 198 grams. The watch is very well made with a solid build and a practically flawless finish. This is a real step above the usual Chinese stuff including San Martin. It's a proper microbrand so I think the makers can offer a higher degree of attention to detail. The bezel action is very good with none of the backplay reported on some reviews. Dial is very well done with fantastic lume, the logo is polarising but I like it a lot. I thought the bracelet would be a generic Chinese engineer but it's actually very nice and comparable to strapcodes offerings. Caseback has an embossed logo which again is very well executed. The only bad points are a few sharpish edges here and there but a very minor issue. Packaging is also very good with comprehensive paperwork and a nice box.So far I'm really pleased with the watch. To get a Seiko with similar spec you would be looking at least double the price.. It may not have the brand status but this offers so much more for your money.
