Citizen Mickey MousevsPhoibos Apollo Dlc

The Citizen Mickey Mouse watch features detailed dial art with Mickey and stars painted in luminous paint, a 42mm case diameter, 22mm band width, and 100 meters of water resistance. However, one owner reports the watch ran 5-7 minutes fast every 30 minutes, with a watchmaker finding swapped movement parts that rendered it unfixable, and a loud "turbo" ticking sound. On balance, owners report significant issues with the Citizen Mickey Mouse's timekeeping and movement reliability.

The Phoibos Apollo Dlc is lauded for its lightweight, scratch-resistant titanium case and unique granular black dial texture. Owners praise its comfortable 41mm x 48mm x 12.5mm dimensions and exceptional lume performance. However, the rocket-shaped hands are noted as making time-telling difficult in low light, and the non-tapering bracelet is a drawback for some. Some users question its value proposition, with one noting that a tourbillon can be found at the same price point as an NH35-powered Phoibos. Overall, owners appreciate the Phoibos Apollo Dlc for its distinctive design and comfortable titanium build, despite some functional and value concerns.
