Reviews

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

Phoibos Eagle Ray 200M

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Eagle Ray Date's design and logo, with one owner noting its well-made appearance despite the low cost and another appreciating the symmetrical date window at 6 o'clock. The watch features a ceramic bezel and a slightly domed sapphire crystal. However, multiple owners report receiving non-functional watches and experiencing poor customer service when seeking refunds. On balance, owners rate the Phoibos Eagle Ray Date positively for its design and value, though significant concerns exist regarding initial functionality and customer support.

Signum Cuda

Owners widely praise the Signum Cuda's distinctive dial options, particularly the Lapis Lazuli and thermally blued meteorite, noting how they play with light. The lume on the bezel and markers is also frequently highlighted as fantastic. However, multiple owners report that the lume on the hands significantly underperforms compared to the rest of the watch, rendering them unreadable in low light. One owner experienced condensation inside the watch despite the crown being screwed in, leading to concerns about build quality, while another owner stated their Cuda has been fine in water. The bezel action was initially stiff for one owner but improved after lubrication. The Signum Cuda is powered by a Miyota 9015 automatic movement and features 200m water resistance with a 42.5mm case. On balance, owners rate the Signum Cuda highly for its unique dial aesthetics and strong bezel/marker lume, despite consistent criticism regarding the hand lume performance.

From video reviewers

The fully lumed dial is a standout strength. The bracelet's perceived quality was not consistently addressed.
