Is This the BEST Microbrand DIVER on the Market?! | Ianos Avyssos Review

[@periclesstamatis7549]

Very nice watch indeed, really good that even though it's a microbrand watch it manages to have some heritage and story behind it. Cheers from Greece!

[@stevepapa]

The stories are what make Ianos so unique! Thanks for watching!

[@alexandergagliardi6532]

My wife bought me the blue model No. 177/262 for my 30th birthday. It’s my favorite gift I’ve ever received. I do everything with it, swimming, running, and hiking, not to mention giving the kids a bath. It’s gotten a few scratches over the past two years and it’s a total beast. My favorite watch by far.

[@stevepapa]

Nice! I loved it when I had it too. I wish I would have kept it now looking back on it. But I'd want the Olive.

[@alexandergagliardi6532]

@@stevepapa Did you sell yours? I had my eye on either the Avyssos or a Squale 1521 and she surprised me with the Ianos.

[@alexandergagliardi6532]

@@stevepapa I also totally agree with you on the bezel. It was almost impossible to turn when I first got it but now it’s much much smoother and works great.

[@stevepapa]

@@alexandergagliardi6532 yeah I ended up selling it a while back to buy the new Mihanikos

[@stevepapa]

@@alexandergagliardi6532 nice! Their new Mihanikos bezel nice and grippy!

[@luke003d]

This watch has such a striking look to it. I love how it stands out and tells a great story.

[@stevepapa]

Yeah definitely! You're never going to confuse this watch with anything else.

[@luke003d]

@@stevepapa I would love to see more original designs with stories than straight up homages to other watches from microbrands.

[@stevepapa]

You and me both. I yearn for more creativity and original watch designs!

[@WatchChris]

Wow great video. Very interesting. I liked this watch esp the dial when I first saw it. You have done it justice!

[@stevepapa]

Thanks Chris! The dial and color options are solid but that strap channel is a game changer. Have you seen a watch with that before or is this a new thing to you too?

[@bboooobbyy]

Seems like a very solidly built watch. I did not expect that at first blush .

[@miazoi7891]

As a fellow Greek who spent summers growing up in Crete. It calls me. I’ve got a Panerai and a Submariner so I don’t think the size would scare me. I’m definitely going to look for one, preferably a sub second hand version. Thank you for the review! Ευχαριστώ πάρα πολύ

[@stevepapa]

Thank you for watching! It's always great to meet a Greek 🇬🇷!

[@georgex5130]

Bravo Steve for doing a video on Ianos!

[@stevepapa]

Thank you! Can't wait for the Μηχανικός!

[@stnason2641]

Great video, I wanna look into these free diving badasses now

[@stevepapa]

Oh those divers are nuts! They have annual competitions that are crazy!

[@DisplayKeesBack]

I'm saving up for this one. Great piece. So different. Wow!

[@andrewmead12]

Great review. As to the bezel......you own a Seamaster. I have Bond 300M. Hard to turn bezel? The Oscar goes to.......Omega!

[@stevepapa]

I think this was slightly harder to turn than the Seamaster. The new Ianos Mihanikos is very easy to turn though!

[@gerkremer3544]

Great review! The more I look at this the more i like it! Cheers!

[@stevepapa]

Thanks Kosta! It's one of my favorite watches!

[@bboooobbyy]

That strap channel on caseback is genius.

[@stevepapa]

That's probably my favorite part of the watch!

[@bozosni]

Έλα ρε πατρίδα! Δεν ήξερα το κανάλι σου, μου έβγαλε τυχαία αυτό το βίντεο. Είναι ευχάριστο ένα τόσο προσεγμένο ρολόι να έχει Ελληνική καταγωγή! Subbed!!!

[@stevepapa]

Ευχαριστώ για το sub. φιλέ!

[@mollari2261]

7:39 No case back = disposable watch, since servicing will be impossible. Too bad, I was really considering this watch, too.

[@stevepapa]

I could be wrong but I think you can access everything from the front of the watch after you remove the bezel.

[@ALPHADUNIT]

What a great video and watch!

[@stevepapa]

Thanks Dustin!

[@VersedNJ]

The Oiive green, looks good too.

[@stevepapa]

All 4 color schemes are top notch!

[@aleko12]

Love the story. Very nice watch.

[@TheMicrobrandReview]

Great review!

[@stevepapa]

Thanks for watching!

[@peteratt1739]

Nice one ☝️- 🇬🇷 Ianos A+

[@stevepapa]

We need a new watch from Ianos!!

[@peteratt1739]

Agreed... I’m sure Jacob has something in the pipeline. C’mon Ianos!!!! What’s next 🤔

[@stevepapa]

Oh definitely! I'm excited!
