Phoibos x Islander Kraken Video Review
Phoibos x Islander Kraken - Long Island Watch
"Release the Kraken! The Phoibos Kraken, that is. The Phoibos Kraken is a diver inspired by the mythological creature that lives beneath the waves. This bold new diver is actually a very wearable 40mm in diameter, with a thickness of just over 12mm. Inside is a Miyota 9015 movement that beats at a smooth 8 ticks per second. The date is shown at the 6:00 position. Additionally, the date window background is matched to the dial color. The screwdown crown (engraved with logo) ensures 200 meters of water resistance.
The silver-white dial is covered by a domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating, providing a very clear view. The black hands and indices are painted with copious amounts of Super-LumiNova BGW9, so it glows blue in the darkness. Surrounding the crystal is a 120 click uni-directional ratcheting bezel that is marked with an elapsed time scale. The bezel insert is DLC stainless steel, also with lume. However, we ALSO include a stainless steel insert, should you decide to change it up (the insert already has tape applied, just remove the existing insert and replace - we recommend a professional if you are not familiar with it).
The Kraken is secured to your wrist with a solid link bracelet that emulates the scaley skin of the Kraken. The bracelet is installed with quick-release spring bars, so no tools are necessary to remove it. The links are all solid, and sized with screws. To get the perfect fit, the clasp is a tool-less micro-adjust (ratcheting) clasp. Completing the Kraken model is a deeply embossed caseback, featuring the great beast."
