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.

Sternglas Sedius

The Sternglas Sedius is widely praised for its harmonious blend of Bauhaus minimalism and Art Deco elegance, featuring a well-balanced sector dial and a smooth-sweeping seconds hand from its Seiko VH31 meca-quartz movement. Owners and reviewers note its pleasing wearability due to the case shape and slender lugs, and it is considered an affordable option with a good price-performance ratio. One reviewer flags legibility issues on the black dial variant, while the blue-on-white offers crispness. The Sternglas Sedius lacks a date complication and features a double-domed sapphire crystal. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Sedius highly for its classy Art Deco aesthetic and value.
