47ZERO Odd-Hours, OlivevsFarer Lethbridge Gold

The 47ZERO Odd-Hours, Olive draws consistent enthusiasm from owners for its distinctive retro 1960s aesthetic and customization options direct with the maker. The bubble dome crystal paired with a domed dial creates a unique visual character, though viewing angle affects how the distortion reads. One owner has reservations about the logo design but praises everything else; others have noted the double-dome construction works particularly well on certain case sizes. Overall, owners rate the Odd-Hours, Olive highly for its singular design language and willingness of the maker to work directly on customization.

Owners widely praise the Farer Lethbridge Gold's attractive appearance and finishing, with one owner calling its PVD gold finish the best they've seen. The watch runs at +4 seconds per day. Some owners note the gold PVD coating can scratch easily and fades slightly on edges, and the original strap tarnished quickly, leading some to seek strap alternatives like blue or gray leather, or NATO/sailcloth. One owner mentions its manual-wind movement and that it is not real gold, which is acceptable given the price. Overall, owners rate the Farer Lethbridge Gold highly for its striking aesthetics and good value, despite minor concerns about the strap and PVD durability.
