Hey Marc! - really smart decision to collab with Phoibos - IMO they, like Island Watch, bring the most 'bang for the buck' of any microbrand - looking and feeling like watches 3+ times the price point. In some of the shots with the right light, the blue color matches your logo, but on the watch it seems to have so much depth! My guess is these watches look even better in the flesh than they appear on camera. The bracelets are sharp and remind me of Omega seamaster styling, but with a nice milled clasp. Well done!

I bought the purple instantly, I've been trying to paint a diverse range of color in my collection and the purple was a no-brainer.

I got 51/100 in purple thanks to the wife! Love this watch!

The blue is cool but that purple is terrific. I have an Eagle Ray Compressor with their red sunburst dial and love it. Get a lot of questions and compliments about it when its on my wrist. And foolishly I thought I'd make it through this Christmas season without buying any more watches.

Ok I just bought blue! The dial and double signed crowns!

Those signed crowns!

What a cool idea to have one logo from each brand on the crowns. Great looking watches!

The blue is simply stunning, the purple isn't bad too. I ordered the blue the moment I saw it. This will be my 1st Islander, be it a colab, and my 2nd Phoibos. I love that you have your logo on the top crown and it actually screws down. I thought I was done buying watches for this year so will have to tell some alternative truths to the Mrs : 😉It's due in the new year so technically it will be 2024s 1st watch 😅

I’m so glad I’m m married with kids a mortgage, otherwise I’d be buying almost every single release you do Marc. The video reviews really show them off, more than pics can.

These are nice! I would say there are 2 big reasons for the slow sale of the blue jfk. 1) Blue is the most common color for watches so almost nobody who has a decent collection needs another blue watch. 2) The blue model is less versatile than the others. The gray and the white models can be worn with many outfits casual or dressy. The blue only really looks good with a suit or a blue shirt. It looks awesome in wrist shots, but when you see the full outfit, it rarely is complimentary.

The blue is really purdy! 🐶🤩

i wanted the supercompressor for a while now, but i was unsure with which model,,, when i saw that blue dial,,, i had to pull the trigger. Super nice!!

Got the Purple dial right away, and I must say in hand it is even better looking. Love the double logo'd crowns and the dial pattern is unlike any other I have. Great collab👍

Those big crowns are very ergonomic! This Eagle Ray in PVD, especially the purple, woud be awasome! Best regards!

Blue is my choice but both rock

Just took delivery on a purple one for Christmas. It's beautiful!

Man oh man that “Cyan Blue” looks soooo fantastic! Great collaboration Marc. And it so happens that, at the time of watching this video (5 days later), I’m also wearing the fantabulous RMM!! (My budget is already set for next year’s Rangemaster!) Thanks for your passion and I love all your collaborations, keep ‘em coming!

dang it! i thought i was done buying watches this year, but you just had to release yet another stunner. I've been interested in Phoibos for a while, so when i saw that sunburst dial in a compressor case, which were both missing from my collection, i knew i had to get this one. the hardest decision was choosing the purple over the blue. thanks a lot Marc! i say that sarcastically and sincerely. 😂

I love that JFK - tried it on at Windup! That blue is dreamy

That blue is stunning, wow! Unfortunately 40mm is my sweet-spot and it might be a tad too thick. But they are beautiful nonetheless.

I really wanted that mechanical watch from the collaboration. Life just didn't allow it. I'm finally working after 2 hip replacements. Maybe next year

Man, would love to grab that purple guy, but just can't swing it right now. Had my eye on a Phoibos with the inner rotating bezel for a minute, and a purple dial on a collaboration with my favorite watch brand? The timing is all wrong, but I want it!

Another great collab. I really like that bracelet. Thanks!

Had to order the purple dial. Love that dark purple and I have the last phoibos colab with the purple dial too

Morc, you are getting more awesome and awesome collabs these days, keep up the good work!

I like that purple dial 👍

All that happy...stuff.😂

these are amazing

The purple one is nice but Phoibos gives me 15% instead of 5% from Islander. I ended up buying the pastel blue eagle ray from Phoibos.

l never thought l would be mad that l have received my black dial eagle ray a week ao ....

Beautiful watch, all of them. It's a good thing they are way to big for me

The blue/'nearly turquoise' looks great, the other, 'blackcurrent juice', to go with the diving, liquid, theme. The name from φοῖβος, Greek for bright thing.

Отл! 👍 Спасибо! 🤝

Hey I have a question: So I have this watch with ronda 5040.D and accidentally changed the date couple of times right after midnight should I be super worried? Thank you for your response!

Wait is this guy making them 0-0

Aw shit 2 dive goats coming together? Let me go get my wallet right quick.

I’m sorry but hard no on these. The colors are gross and I’ll never get passed their logo.

I really need that explorer! 🧭
