Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic is noted for its non-tritium dial option, though some owners prefer the 1-12 numeral layout found on other models. One owner found the 36mm size too small for their wrist. Overall, owners appreciate the Marathon Arctic OSAR 36mm Automatic for its non-tritium dial option.
The Linde Werdelin Oktopus Moon Gold Black Ink is noted for its cohesive and impressive design, featuring a photorealistic moon phase display. Reviewers highlight the three-layer skeletonized dial with Côtes de Genève finishing on the lower dial, and the moon phase is visible in the dark. However, the rose gold accents on the dial and hands are considered suboptimal for low-light readability, and the crown guards are described as significantly sharp. The Oktopus II Moon Gold is priced at CHF 27,000 (ex VAT). On balance, reviewers praise the Oktopus Moon Gold Black Ink for its striking design and detailed dial work, tempered by concerns over low-light legibility and sharp crown guards.
