THE Situation

The Amphion is very clearly inspired through the Submariner using the situation as being a rather enjoyable nod to the classic styling.

It features a couple of little features - that takes that which was already great and causes it to be more capable and appropriate. For example, something simple like drilled-through lugs will always be handy to possess because they ensure easy strap altering.

A sizable, oversized crown without any crown-pads turns this element right into a feature particularly when you browse the fact the the Nth emblem engraved around the finish is stuffed with lume. This type of simple factor that appears awesome - I'm surprised I've not seen it before (certainly one of individuals why didn't I consider that moments).

Although a lot of the situation is brushed, there's a subtle polished bottom and top edging which supplies clean lines and a number of glare.

The DLC-coated steel bezel insert is engraved with remarkable precision, and all sorts of markings are full of strong lume. I like the flat triangular at 12 as opposed to a bulbous personal injury protection and also the full 60-minute marking is extremely welcome too.

The screw-in caseback is amazingly simple: small detailing within the center along with a polished outer rim.

The situation also features an array of lume not just all of the bezel markings but the engraved Nth emblem within the crown. This can be a feature that's on all Nth watches, and it is this type of simple but awesome addition making these watches stick out.

THE DIAL

The dial is straightforward having a retro inspired gold  theme running through: both your hands, emblem and hour markers are within this colour. It's a pleasant to determine something a little dissimilar to the typical steel the thing is so frequently on Submariner homages.

An extremely well hidden date wheel is situated between your 4 and 5 hour markers, that is a circle instead of square withdrawn from the dial. The wheel includes a black base into it, making it camouflaged well.

Both your hands really are a charming divergent towards the usual mercedes hands used a lot: a large, stubby leaf formed hour hands, along with a thin sword minute hands coupled alongside a stick second hands having a lumed arrowhead tip.

The lume is very strong and evenly put on both your hands and hour markers.

THE BRACELET

The fully brushed bracelet (bar the polished sides) is smooth and incredibly great. The hyperlinks are guaranteed with screw-in instead of upright pins, that makes it simple to re-size.

A dual-locking buckle ensures the Amphion won't ever accidentally disappear the wrist. Using the Nth emblem engraved on top bar and three teams of micro-adjustment, it's practical too.

THE MOVEMENT

The Miyota 9015 is really a movement that's found so frequently in microbrands. And appropriately in order it's well-known like a excellent and reliable affordable option to the Swiss automatics. It's all of the specs you'd expect: 42 hour power reserve, hands winding and hacking seconds hands, and automatic winding. It's just a little around the plain side when it comes to looks, however this doesn't matter because you can't view it behind the entire steel caseback. The precision is weighing a decent  9. seconds each day.
