What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer THREE HAND SERIES III

Owners widely praise the Farer THREE HAND SERIES III for its attractive dial colors, particularly the salmon and red variants, and its well-proportioned 36mm case. The watch features a textured dial, screw-down crown, and 100m water resistance, powered by a La Joux-Perret G101 movement offering a 68-hour power reserve. Some owners find the designs generic compared to previous releases. Reviewers note the minute hashes can be difficult to read in certain lights, and the included strap is considered too thick and stiff. Overall, owners rate the Farer THREE HAND SERIES III highly for its vibrant dials and well-proportioned case.

NOMOS Glashütte Ludwig automatic

Owners praise the NOMOS Glashütte Ludwig automatic for its exceptional blend of traditional Roman numerals and railroad tracks with modern design, highlighting fine details like the tiny logo on the crown and the exceptional dial printing. The long lugs are a significant consideration, with some finding the 35mm model wears larger and the 33mm a better fit for wrists around 6.5 inches. Overall, owners appreciate the NOMOS Glashütte Ludwig automatic for its unique aesthetic and attention to detail.
