Abinger gives March 2027 on its own site as the shipping month for the Phantom, the British microbrand’s second watch after the Nimrod and the first it assembles in the UK. Pre-orders are open now at GBP 699 including UK shipping, roughly $925 USD at current exchange rates, against a GBP 725 retail price, roughly $959 USD. Abinger notes that the pre-order figure excludes shipping outside the UK and any local customs or taxes.
The 38mm sand-blasted DLC steel case is 10.8mm thick and rated to 200 meters, and inside is a Miyota 9039 automatic. Every order ships on a black FKM strap with a matching DLC buckle and a two-year warranty. The brand has committed to a month rather than a day. Indices covered the Phantom’s pre-order opening on October 3.
