Reviews

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Oris Sun Wukong Artist Edition

The Oris Sun Wukong Artist Edition is widely praised for its stunning and exceptionally cool cloisonné enamel dial, which features artwork from the Chinese tale of the Monkey King. Owners and reviewers alike highlight the in-house Calibre 400 movement as a class-leading feature. However, one owner found the dial, while unique, to be a bit too busy for daily wear. This limited edition Aquis diver, priced at $27,500, de-emphasizes its tool watch credentials with no dial indices and a simplified bezel, positioning it as an artistic statement. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Oris Sun Wukong Artist Edition highly for its elaborate cloisonné artistry and the impressive Calibre 400 movement.

Benrus Watches TYPE 3X

Benrus Watches TYPE 3X owners and reviewers praise its classical styling and solid build quality, with the 42mm case noted to wear smaller due to minimal lugs. One owner finds the automatic watch comparable in cost to a basic Swatch and considers it proof of Benrus's substantial revival. The included Velcro strap is unappealing, but the rubber strap works well. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Benrus Watches TYPE 3X highly for its wearability and value.
