Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Phoibos Wave Master GMT is widely praised for its attractive design, comfortable 20mm tapering bracelet, and wearability on a 7" wrist, with owners finding it a strong value proposition at $220. Some minor finishing flaws, such as slightly crooked markers and off-center dial numbers, are noted by one owner, while accuracy averages around 5-10 seconds over two weeks. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Wave Master GMT highly for its distinctive design and comfortable wearability at its price point.
The Wave Master GMT's notable feature is its 200M water resistance. A drawback is the rattle of the bracelet. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer noting its significant weight for a 39.5mm case diameter, but the other reviewer doesn't mention any specific weaknesses or trade-offs.
Owners widely praise the Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT for its great finishing, fun and original designs, and nice dials. One owner notes the GMT's flyer function and unique inner bezel, while another reports their Trafford's domed crystal cracked after a short drop. Owners describe the Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT as having a "cool funky original vibe" and a "chonky boi vibe on the wrist but in a good way," with one wearer reporting daily use for a year without the watch stopping. On balance, owners rate the Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT highly for its distinctive aesthetic and robust daily performance.
The Trafford Watch Co Touring GMT's unique GMT function offers an alternative way to use the feature. The micro-adjust system on the bracelet is a convenient feature for fine-tuning the fit. The watch lacks specific details on its performance, accuracy, or movement caliber, making it difficult to compare it to other GMT watches.
