Thanks Jonathan for throwing in those comparisons and a power packed review, It still amazes me - the speed at which you deliver your content , while being tactical and pleasant to listen to. ❤️
I love the stealthy look of the meteorite version, gives me some classic SKX007 vibes. A 28800bph movement is a nice plus as well over a nh35. Hope to get my hands on one of these, i think meteorite will be the most popular , even more than the Damascus.
I love the Meteorite as well! The transformation from a plain black watch to seeing those striations is great. I've always loved the Mako but it's now even better with these updates in my opinion. Cheers
Thanks Jonathan! Found your channel now that I’m wondering if this would be my first Zelos. Well, now you have a new subscriber! Really appreciate your enthusiasm and thorough style. Keep up the good work!
Thanks so much for the kind words and support! I think this model makes a perfect first Zelos. The price, features, style/size, etc. make it a great all-arounder. Cheers
Appreciated the in-depth look at this watch and all the info you dumped on us! 😉 One of my favorite features of this video was the outdoor takes. Absolutely loved that. I subbed and hit the bell! I seriously wish more watch reviews would get outdoor shots, because studio/indoor lighting is very different from person to person, often too harsh; outdoors is pretty much the best standard to compare what a watch really looks like. I've never had/seen a meteorite dial, and unfortunately, most videos showing them, don't make them justice. Yours did! A meteorite is in my must-have list now.
Thank you very much for the kind words and support! It's tough getting a watch based on pics or a spec sheet. My goal is to always try to approach them from a variety of perspectives in an effort to help add a bit of dimension. I highly recommend trying a well executed meteorite dial sometime! There's something special about wearing a sliver of history. Cheers
I just ordered this very model. I will be viewing this review a few times over the next month while I anticipate being able to handle my own in the flesh. First meteor dial. First Mako. I can see this being a very versatile daily wear watch! Great review. Loving your channel.
Thanks you so much! Wow, congrats! Those are some exciting firsts. I don't think you'll be disappointed. I'm still planning to make a comparison video with the bronze and stainless variants too, so you'll be able to get more varied vicarious time while you wait 😉 Cheers
Thanks for working hard to push this review. Good to have such an in depth hands on before the watch goes live for purchase. Think I'll set my alarm for the timascus.
My pleasure! I'm glad I was able to get it all together in time. We're all itching for as many data points as possible before taking the plunge on a new one and I always want to do my part to help with the decision when I can. The timascus should be a beauty! Cheers
Thanks buddy! I think you'll be pleased with the addition! The color differences aren't enough to make me want to sell some of my favorite bronze and SS variants, but this one is my favorite of the bunch to wear on a bracelet. Elshan paid attention to your awesome Burgundy SS mod! I love the bronze variant too, but no one could argue with that combo looking killer! Cheers
Thanks for sharing this. Changed my order from the MOP to this, because it looks beautiful in your video. I have a swordfish with a bund strap, and the bund is imprinted with the spring bar quick release, and the swordfish emboss. Glad to hear that this watch has toned that down so that it will not imprint my wrist or bund strap. Thanks!!!
Very happy to have helped! Both choices are beautiful, but this one would get my vote too. One of the best meteorite executions to date in my opinion. The strap may still imprint with its greater ability to conform, but I think your wrist will find it to be smoother. Cheers
Ordered the V.3 titanium all-lumed white dial version, will be my 3rd Zelos, 2nd Mako, the other being bronze teal dial V.3 version. Big Fan of the 9015 movement and its close relatives. Never any issue, very smooth and accurate.
thx Jonathan, great detailed review. I'm planning on getting two from this release, Storm will be one for sure, just need to decide on this one, MOP or the SS Damascus. I like the fact it's a little heavier than a normal Ti, maybe the coating added that extra weight
Thank you! I really like that Storm Grey as well. That's tough, each of the ones you've picked are awesome. I suspect this weight will be a sweet spot for many. Heavy enough for those that like heavier watches, but light enough for those that don't. I believe the weight comes primarily from the overall design/thickness/etc. Cheers
@@JonathanTReviews Yes similar but more, more complete, I'd like to see a similar complete review for the horizons aventurine one day, with the comparisons with the other models, the indoor and outdoor footage, excellent quality.
@@JonathanTReviews So I just got the watch, it is f'in amazing in person. wow. I am in love. I think I want to order the green or frost dial one now. dammit my wallet is going to hurt.
Thank you so much! Trying to fly through putting the review together to help everyone before launch got me mixed up 😄 Elshan confirmed the clasp is coated as well, which was great to read. Cheers
I really appreciate you tossing in the burgundy Mako for me, I know you did that only for me because we're close friends...man, when I got the email & looked at all of the watches/colorways, I was 100% burgundy...I've got the teal with the black bezel & I've always said if they made a red one I'd jump all over it, esp. in coated titanium. But the meteorite though. It's from outer space...I Googled it. Burgundy, while beautiful, is not from outer space...Googled that too. Damn it. Meteorite's just taken the lead with less than a day to go...thanks again, great vid!
This post wins the comments section 🤣 I love it! Happy to have helped, even if by creating more dilemma. It is hard to pick between those two. If you don't have any other meteorite watches, that would get the nod for me. The burgundy is gorgeous but there's something special about having something that unfathomably old on the wrist. Cheers
@@JonathanTReviews Ya, that's the thing, I've got zero ancient outer space missiles on my wrist & that needs to change. I need you to call my wife & explain to her why it might make the most sense to get both watches...& by "sense" I mean that I just want both watches. I'm kidding about my wife, I of course never ever tell her about new watch purchases...they all look the same to her, so all I need to do is have them delivered to my office & boom, everyone's happy. I'm happy. I'll probably just get the meteorite, & then 6 months from now I'll buy the burgundy for $170 more than I could get it for now, on the Bay...because I'm pragmatic.
That all sounds about right 🤣 You have your ducks well in a row! If a call does end up being needed, I'm happy to oblige: 1-555-ZEL-OS4U. Text or call is fine 😉😁
I don’t have a Mako but I do have a Great White and I’m glad to see these makos don’t share the GW clasp. While I love the quick extension. This bad boy is sharp AF. The corners are wild. It’s my only “niggle”
Apologies for the very late reply. I had several comments that weren't showing up for some reason. The clasp on this Mako Titanium, with the quick adjust, full brush finish and coating is my favorite yet. Cheers
Thank you for another excellent and very informative review. In the side-shots the case finishing appears coarser/duller than the satin finish on the steel models. Can you confirm or maybe just lighting?
My pleasure! Thanks for watching. I just gave them another look. I'd say the case side does look more dull and with slightly more obvious brush lines (this is common of titanium in my experience). The brushing is also vertical, unlike the SS which is horizontal, which I think makes that aspect seem more dramatic. I hope this helps. Cheers
Thank you so much! Great question. While I can't say definitively on the coating itself, I'd say the end color is somewhat between brushed stainless and titanium. I don't think most people would be able to easily distinguish from either by visual appearance alone (particularly without being side by side). The bracelet reads a touch more like stainless to me (finer brushing) whereas the case side reads a little more titanium (more pronounced vertical brushing). Cheers
Biggest complaint and not sure you touched on it or not, but AR coating could be better. When I look at my watch it doesn't look like yours in this video. It's pretty foggy and lots of reflection. Everything else is spot on.
I've seen others mention the same about glare. I've experienced it as well but generally write it off as being attributable to the high dome, as I've had the same issue with other brand watches. I'd be curious to see if more layers could further minimize it. I haven't had legibility issues as a result but it does make it a bear to capture good pics. Cheers
That dial is just stunning , still undecided if i'll get one or not ......... on a side note , was checking out one of your old videos again for the Nodus sector pilot watch , you did an unboxing but did you ever do a full review ? quick little question about the Nodus , do you know what the bezel is made off ? Stainless steel or is it a Ceramic as it's not listed on there website , Cheers Jonathan
The meteorite dial really is beautiful. Unfortunately, I haven't done a full review of the Nodus yet 😣 I ran into some small hiccups with it that took a bit to get sorted (Wes and Cullen were great though). I've had a stream in the queue since then and haven't gotten back to it yet. It's a stainless insert. Cheers
@@JonathanTReviews Cheers Jonathan for the reply and the answer , hopefully have a blue dial sector pilot turning up in the next few days but there's not many reviews out there on it , your unboxing and RR did the black dial - but completely understand you have a lot in the que haha ....... i didnt get a meteorite as when i woke up they were all gone as usual lol
I think you'll like the Sector! I really need to squeeze in some time to knock that and a few other long overdue ones out. I always try to prioritize loaners so I'm turning them around quickly, leaving some of my personal watches languishing 😕 Bummer about the Meteorite Mako! Hopefully one pops up at a good price before long. Cheers
If you're diving Titanium, even hardened cannot handle the same punishment as regards scratching on ocean stones and coral as 316l stainless. I'm an experienced diver and use a number of dive watches including Zelos Abyss 3 A Stainless Steel, (great watch btw!)and have used hardened titanium steel from Seiko and a couple of other microbrands. If you don't dive and don't use your watch in rough conditions on land, titanium is very good and durable. But if you dive or do activities like mountaineering then stay from titanium, hardened or not. The coating doesn't last, and is only a few microns thick anyway. P.S. As soon as you see that first scratch on titanium, you can't unsee it. It still pains me when I look at my titanium divers.
Have you ever tried polishing your Ti divers? I've heard that while it may scratch easier than SS, it is also much easier to polish due to the scratches generally only affecting the oxide layer.
A common trick/tip is to use an eraser if it's just an oxide scratch. They also make touch up pens and tools that are supposed to be easier than stainless to use. Cheers
It is a beautiful watch! The meteorite version sold out on Zelos' site, but there are still several others in stock. The meteorite should be available through some dealers as well after launch. Cheers
I'm always curious about bezel action because I've had a watch with very very stiff action it was unusable in daily life. I really appreciate your note, but would have been great if you paused speaking so that I could hear the action.
Usually I receive watches as loaners but, at this point, I'm thinking they may be donating this one to the channel 🤞 I'll update the description to clarify once I confirm. Cheers
It would be good to at least have both dimensions. But, I suppose that's how I can keep myself "in business" covering the additional details 🤣 The high dome does make the total dimension a bit deceiving. It wears a lot thinner to me, especially if your trying to get under a cuff. Cheers
Despite picking up a lot of glare on camera (high double dome crystals are a bear to film), it's very good in my experience. You absolutely will get some glare and reflection (the nature of a high dome) but I've never found legibility to be an issue. Cheers
Would have purchased several Zelos watches- except they are ALWAYS sold out on the models I would select. I've had enough of their crap, they can rot for all I care. As an avid watch collector, it would have been nice to add a few of theirs, but the company is just way too small and unable to create and keep in stock their 'collections'. and no, I do NOT have the time to check in every day to see when a watch will come in stock. I NEVER do that even for rare special Breitlings and the like.
That stinks the versions you wanted sold out. If you aren't already subscribed to their mailing list, they send out a launch link with a countdown timer usually a couple days before they go live. With the exception of really limited quantity special runs, like the Timascus model in this batch, most of them aren't terrible to secure at launch time. I hope this helps. Cheers
I think you'd be pleasantly surprised. That is total height including the high dome crystal. With the slope, it doesn't generally cause issues like a thick case would. Mileage may vary but it's a bit deceiving. Cheers
LOL. Many pronounce it both ways. Elshan named it Zeh-los. There have been a lot of threads on the topic in his Facebook group and he has confirmed on several occasions. Cheers
Just breaking balls. Although it does put a little crank in my neck when I hear it with the soft e lololol. In I’m the Facebook group. Love it in there.
Haha! All good. Believe me, as an American, it took me saying it about 5k times to stop saying Zeelos 🤣 I used to cringe hearing and saying it that way but have gotten used to it. Cheers

Confirming a couple details, the stainless steel clasp is coated/hardened as well! The titanium is Grade 2. Thanks for watching!
Good to know , less wear damage on the clasp. Lighter and more corrosion resistant because of pure titanium grade 2
Agreed, a great combination and finishing decision all the way around. Cheers
Awesome!!!

Really great review! I’m definitely going for the storm color way but I’m pretty sure that’s going to sell out super quick so fingers crossed.

ordered as soon as it dropped! can't waittttt!!!!!!!
Awesome! Which one did you grab? Cheers

@@matthewjackman8410 you can only do that on untreated titanium...so you'd need to polish/sand off the hardness coating completely to try and fix it.

Usually I receive watches as loaners but, at this point, I'm thinking they may be donating this one to the channel 🤞 I'll update the description to clarify once I confirm. Cheers
On zelos website I hate how they advertise the thickness as 11.5mm but in reality it's almost 14. I know they don't count the crystal but they should
It would be good to at least have both dimensions. But, I suppose that's how I can keep myself "in business" covering the additional details 🤣 The high dome does make the total dimension a bit deceiving. It wears a lot thinner to me, especially if your trying to get under a cuff. Cheers
Weight was a question of mine, much lighter than steel. Thanks
Absolutely, it's a big difference. I knew that would be of high interest before launch so wanted to address it in detail. Cheers
brother how’s the anti reflective treatment ?
Despite picking up a lot of glare on camera (high double dome crystals are a bear to film), it's very good in my experience. You absolutely will get some glare and reflection (the nature of a high dome) but I've never found legibility to be an issue. Cheers
What was the last watch you compared it to? i believe you called it a Raw and it was double meteorite.

You sound like Karl Conrad 😂. Anyways, Awesome review
I had to look him up 🤣 You're not wrong 🤣 Hopefully I'll build the same following. LOL. Thanks so much! Cheers
Would have purchased several Zelos watches- except they are ALWAYS sold out on the models I would select. I've had enough of their crap, they can rot for all I care. As an avid watch collector, it would have been nice to add a few of theirs, but the company is just way too small and unable to create and keep in stock their 'collections'. and no, I do NOT have the time to check in every day to see when a watch will come in stock. I NEVER do that even for rare special Breitlings and the like.
That stinks the versions you wanted sold out. If you aren't already subscribed to their mailing list, they send out a launch link with a countdown timer usually a couple days before they go live. With the exception of really limited quantity special runs, like the Timascus model in this batch, most of them aren't terrible to secure at launch time. I hope this helps. Cheers
13,9mm is little too thick when using with suit shirt :(
I think you'd be pleasantly surprised. That is total height including the high dome crystal. With the slope, it doesn't generally cause issues like a thick case would. Mileage may vary but it's a bit deceiving. Cheers
@@JonathanTReviews So is it 11.5mm where the crystal starts?
I just threw it on my calipers to confirm and got ~11.4mm. That's from the case back to the top of the bezel against the crystal's edge.
@@JonathanTReviews Thank you !
