What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Brew Metric Digital Blend

The Brew Metric is praised for its fun, unique, and retro-inspired design, with reviewers noting its appliance-like execution and well-executed details. The compact 36mm wearability and tapered bracelet are highlighted as positives. However, its 13mm thickness and 50-meter water resistance are flagged as limitations, and the date window placement is a minor compromise due to the mechaquartz movement. Overall, reviewers find the Brew Metric to be a ton of fun at its $425 price point, appreciating its distinctive aesthetic.

Phoibos Apollo

The Phoibos Apollo is widely praised for its unique design, outstanding lume, and lightweight titanium build, with owners highlighting its comfortable 41mm wearability and value powered by a Miyota 9015 movement. Some find the "rocket" hand design hinders quick time-telling, and the bracelet does not taper. A few owners consider its price point high relative to other titanium and bronze offerings. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Apollo highly for its distinctive aesthetic and excellent lume at the price.
