Reviews

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

Oris Artelier Date

Owners widely praise the Oris Artelier Date for its exceptional quality and value, with one owner calling it their favorite watch and noting it was purchased for significantly less than its MSRP. Reviewers highlight its contemporary, urban aesthetic, slim 38mm profile, and minimalist dial with attractive stamped patterns. The Oris Artelier Date is powered by the Oris 733 automatic movement. On balance, the consensus is that the Oris Artelier Date is highly regarded for its impressive build quality and stylish design at an accessible price point.

A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Thin

Owners and reviewers widely praise the A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Thin for its superb case finishing and the exceptional, traditional finishing of its manual-wind L093.1 movement, featuring a hand-engraved balance cock and Glashütte stripes. The slim 5.9mm profile of the 37mm model is noted for comfortable wearability. Some owners find the 37mm case too small for larger wrists, while others consider it too formal with the OEM strap, preferring alternatives for everyday wear. The movement's historical significance as Lange's first round time-only caliber is also highlighted. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the A. Lange & Söhne Saxonia Thin highly for its exquisite finishing and slim, elegant design.

From video reviewers

The ultra-slim case, measuring between 5.9mm and 6.2mm, is a consistent highlight. Reviewers noted the lack of a date complication as a significant omission for the price point.
