PHOIBOS EAGLE RAY GMT PX023G 300M Dive Watch
My first Phoibos watch and I absolutely love it. First time buying a micro brand watch and I feel like I got a watch that is worth far more than what I paid for it. The way the blue AR coating looks in the light of the sapphire crystal, the strong lume in blue, and the comfort with the strap it came with make this a watch I'll be wearing for a very long time.

I recently got into watches a couple years ago. CASIO has to be the brand that really pulled me in to collecting. But it really started with a Fossil Chronograph watch my wife got for me before we got...

Great looking watch. Don't know why, but I love their logo. Touch of the Bond villain to it. 😁
This is one of my favorites. But I never bought one as it's too heavy for me.
I also love their logo. It's big, fun, and cool. But also not screaming the name.
Giving off that Octopussy vibe and reminds me of HYDRA from Marvel as well.
That's a handsome watch. Every time I find something I like from this brand I go to the website only to find it isn't in stock. I find this annoying and I kind of stopped looking.

This watch is 85g, I think because it's quartz. The PY039G which is the automatic version with the metal band weighs 173g. This one is actually very light and thinner too with a 2.5mm difference in case thickness.
Great looking compressor. I'm finding myself interested in that type. I'm not a dive watch guy, really. I don't own one. But there are a few I'd consider. A compressor type is appealing.

I know the feeling. I clicked on the "Notify Me" button on their web page and they sent me an email as soon as they were in stock. In fact this one currently still is.

I would recommend this watch if you like the look. It's not nearly as bulky as the usual diver's watch either, 10.5mm in case thickness and the sapphire crystal is slightly domed.

Thanks. I don't care for the logo, unfortunately. And you know how picky we watch people are!

Damn that's nice. Still a bit heavy for me but maybe they'll do a titanium one someday.
I also don't really need a diver but I could call it my dress watch. 🤔 But I also don't need a dress watch lol.
I have the purple Wave Master GMT on preorder, looking forward to my first Phoibos.
Congratulations 👏🏽. It's a fantastic looking watch. Their designs and dial colors are 🔥.
I really enjoy Phoibos design. High on the micro brand list for me, and that awesome logo is a bonus!
Love that lume!
Nice!
My first automatic watch was a Phoibos Submariner homage back in 2017, before they even had a logo! Ceramic bezel, sunburst dial, decent bracelet and clasp, Miyota 9000-series movement that ran great. Gifted it to a nephew years ago, but it’ll always be my first automatic watch.
Phoibos very quickly moved on from homages to their own designs and prove beyond a doubt Chinese watches can be both great watches and original designs.
It is a great looking watch!
If they get around to making this model on a smaller diameter version I will buy one. For now, I am happy with my Voyager.
And yes, the quality on these is really something 👌
Congrats on a great watch. I have the non GMT auto model and I love it. Have limited wrist time so far but what I have is all positive. Just seems to be a high quality piece. Planning to wear mine tomorrow.
Beautiful
