I have this watch in meteorite dial, work it into my rotation often and it does wears well. It is chunky, like a Chunky Candy bar if you've seen one. Lume is very good.
I got me self the vintage black one an the watch is a Panzer it sturdier as the G-Shock. The thing wears so good, and comfy despite it's 200g adjusted for my 7inch wrist. The case form and lugs are more comfy than mine 77g G-Shock. After I got the watch I've opened regulated and their NH35s run as you adjust them, steady and clean. The movement was clean cased and underneath the case back are two gaskets. Zelos, man no one can compete with them in price-quality range. Makes me feel like I bought some high end swiss diver for the quarter of their price. Just looking makes me smile. Thin about Zelos before you buy Prospex or LXs from Seiko that cost way over 500 and still have lousy bracelets, clasps and aluminum inserts.
Have a Zelos with a Lunar Frost dial and I really like it! Indeed, the bracelet is very good for the price, and the watch has proved to be very accurate. Prices have been quite reasonable for what you get. Worst thing is the output for each model tends to be small considering it's for worldwide sale, so you may have to do some searching if you don't catch them near the release date (I finally found one through one of their ADs but paid a bit of a premium).
I just spent ten minutes looking at Nixon watches and MVMT, and people talking about them on UA-cam. It’s amazing how many ppl think they’re great. For the same price the can get this. Is that even a choice????!!! It’s just amazing how so many people think that just because a watch is BIG and heavy, it’s good. Great video Ted.
They used to sell out quick cause they made small batches. Not so fast now. They produce more now and hype is also probably wearing off. They have several models that are still available and have been for many months. Not only available on their website but also on other third party dealer websites. The hammerhead model is still in stock 3months after you commented. Calm down.
Honest question: What is meant by the term “wearable” as used in the title of this video? Certainly it can’t be “as opposed to unwearable”, in the normal usage of the word. It must then be some horological nuance that the reviewer is trying to convey? From the title, perhaps with respect to watches, wearability has something to do with solidity? I’m guessing solidity in the watch world speaks to real or perceived build quality or the execution of the build itself, lending to the feeling of value on the wrist? Perhaps it is how tangible (or intangible) that feeling is that is the measure of a watch’s wearability? Thanks kindly in advance for anyone’s thoughtful responses.
@@YellowstripeDad I don't know what it means, but this brand is known for it's crazy 3,000m water resistance, making the watches incredibly thick and bulky. I assume wearable is used here as a jab to the historic thickness of the watches.
I wish you guys did custom straps, or do you? I need a really nice grey alligator strap, top and bottom alligator but I can't find one anywhere. Everyone says make a custom one but they're all coming from abroad and I don't know how endangered species laws might affect it, would be good if there was a US based custom strap company. If anyone knows of one please let me know.
Has anyone actually gone diving with a zelos before? I'm thinking of maybe buying one but even though they are 300m or more rated, it isn't iso. Anyone try them at maybe 40m?

Just bought my first Zelos, cant wait for it to arrive!
Considering Zelos usually sells out pretty quick it is good to know that you carry them.

This is astonishingly beautiful!
Ooh yes! I like this one!
Loving the angles and facets.
Wearing my Swordfish now! Same dial color, but a bronze case!
Man i love Zelos. Wish you could cover more of them.
I love the Hammerhead v3. it's a Chad piece.
Purchased one a few days ago thanks to your balanced and concise review. Had to go to manufacture as my color choice wasn't available on your website.
Thanks Teddy. Unfortunately you didn't have the dial colour I needed. I got it from Zelos directly.
Bro your killing me . I am huge I love this!
This make's got a lot of things figured out well.
Been waiting just about a month for my 40mm Swordfish Ti
Me too! Can’t wait to get it
Love this brand! Thanks for sharing.
I can’t wait to get this one on my wrist 🙂👍🏻
Teddy, I checked your site, does not have the electric blue, ended buying from their site. 😢
$529 shipped (no tax)
Great review! Love to see an episode on larger 42mm+ pieces for those of us with larger wrists, Breitling Avenger, 46mm Navitimer, JSAR etc.
Wearable seems like the most backhanded compliment possible for a watch.

phenomenal content Teddy Baldassarre Reviews. I shattered that thumbs up on your video. Keep on up the amazing work.
Do the Baume & Mercier Riviera 10616 review. Looking into that watch want to know if it’s worth the buy.
Love a ton of things about Zelos but can’t get used to the 4 o’clock crown position.

Best rewiew on this watch 👍
Great video! As usual.
Very dark background this round. Prefer bit more light ☺️
They do make nice time pieces however that price for an NH is ridiculous. You can do better.
Interesting time piece
Wrist diameter would be a much more useful measurement given the different shapes of wrist cross section.
Great vid, thank you.

If they changed their logo I'd buy multiple watches from this brand. I love their products but I cannot get passed their logo.
Can you do an episode on white face watches?
wassup teddy!!! 😎✌️
Nice looking watch but not with an NH35. No thanks.
First :) great review as always Teddy
quick boi
Disappointed in zelos... mine goes to fast ... will never buy microbrands
First :) Great review!!!
Design is too harsh for my liking, it looks like a tool from a toolbox.
While I know it is a matter of taste I think that is kind of the point to differentiate it stylistically from others.
@@karlsenula9495 yeah that’s true. I definitely appreciate the fact that they aren’t just copying other more mainstream/established aesthetics.
Great case, shitty movement..
I think it’s ugly and the way the end links don’t fit the case makes it look it’s price
Beauty is indeed in the eye of the beholder. I think it's a beautiful watch, and thus ordered one a couple of weeks ago.
