Miyota

Miyota's premium automatic caliber positioned as a Japanese alternative to the ETA 2824-2 and Sellita SW200-1. The 9015 adds hacking, hand-winding, and a smoother 28,800 vph beat rate over the budget 8215. Its thinner profile and higher jewel count make it a favorite among microbrands seeking a reliable mid-range movement that punches above its price point.

02The community take

Owners talk.

“

Owners widely praise Zelos' dial finishing, with specific admiration for blued markers and hands, and the unique titanium bezel insert. Reviewers highlight the Mako 4's impressive case finishing and fully lumed ceramic bezel for its price point, noting the boxed sapphire crystal and wavy dial texture contribute to a vintage feel. The Sellita SW200 movement is described as reliable, with one owner reporting accuracy of -0.3 seconds per day. However, the crown can be difficult to grip, and the winding mechanism offers resistance when screwing down, while the watch's height may hinder wearability under a suit cuff. The tropic rubber strap is considered excellent, in contrast to a stiff leather option. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Zelos Mako 4 highly for its exceptional dial and case finishing at its price point.
