Zelos Eagle 2

Owners widely praise the Zelos Eagle 2's unique meteorite dial and titanium case, with one owner describing it as a "work of art" featuring a fully lumed dial and a scratch-resistant 1,200 Vickers hardness-coated case. The LaJoux Perret G100Soigne movement provides a 68-hour power reserve. Some owners, however, find the dial layout "ugly" and the font thick, while others note minor QC issues like misaligned markers. On balance, owners rate the Zelos Eagle 2 highly for its distinctive meteorite dial and titanium construction at its price point.

From video reviewers

The watch's compact size is a notable strength, with a 39mm diameter case and 11mm thickness making it suitable for a pilot's watch. A potential weakness is the lug-to-lug fit, which may be too large for smaller wrists. Reviewers disagree on the bezel, with one reviewer highlighting the Cerakote finish as a standout feature, while another mentions the watch's bezel in passing without comment.
