What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Phoibos Apollo Titanium

The Phoibos Apollo Titanium Dark Matter Blue is described as beautiful and unique, with one owner noting it as their first Chinese watch. One owner reports small marks on the case, bracelet, bezel, and case back, but otherwise finds the watch in very good condition. On balance, owners find the Phoibos Apollo Titanium to be a visually appealing and unique timepiece.

NOMOS Glashütte Tangente 38 date

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente for its thinness, comfortable 38mm size, and simple Bauhaus-inspired design, noting its versatility and the quality of its German in-house manual-wind Alpha movement. However, some owners report significant accuracy issues, with one experiencing a gain of 60 seconds per day, and the hard-edged case is noted to be prone to scratches. The watch is also said to wear larger than its case size. On balance, owners rate the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente highly for its elegant design and slim wearability, despite some concerns about accuracy and case durability.
