Reviews

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

Alexander Shorokhoff Alzenau Automatic

Owners praise the Alexander Shorokhoff Alzenau Automatic - Alexander Shorokhoff Uhren for its uniquely attractive, quirky designs and excellent dial finishing, with one owner noting his wife "absolutely loves" the piece. The watch features characteristic "Alice in Wonderland" style numerals and a "60" at the 12 o'clock position. While the overall quality is considered good for the price, dial printing is noted as not the sharpest, and some find the watches very shiny. On balance, owners rate the Alexander Shorokhoff Alzenau Automatic - Alexander Shorokhoff Uhren highly for its distinctive avant-garde design and dial finishing.

Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto Date

The Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto Date is praised for its well-finished, balanced 38.5mm case that is lighter than other Orient divers, and is considered classy and elegant with a beautiful sun and moon dial. Owners note this limited edition diver costs $241 and features an in-house automatic movement. Some find the sun and moon complication pointless as it's not a true moonphase, and the bracelet clasp is noted as tiny. Overall, owners rate the Orient 75th Anniversary Stretto Date highly for its elegant design and well-finished case at the price.
