What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer LISSOM

Farer Lissom owners and reviewers widely praise its slim 7.95mm case and elegant 38mm dimensions, noting its well-balanced proportions and comfortable wearability. The vibrant and colorful dial designs, intricate details like grained textures and sunken sub-dials, and lume-filled dauphine hands are frequently highlighted as strengths. The manual-wind La Joux-Perret D100 movement is mentioned, with a claimed accuracy of +/- 15 seconds and a 50-hour power reserve, though one owner reported a movement failure after overwinding, which was resolved with excellent customer service. Some owners find the blue numerals and hands appear nearly black unless catching the light, and opinions are split on the 38mm size, with some finding it ideal and others a bit small for their wrist. The 42.8mm lug-to-lug measurement is noted as potentially appearing odd on larger wrists. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Farer Lissom highly for its striking design and slim, wearable case at its price point.

Farr + Swit Seaplane

Owners widely praise the Farr + Swit Seaplane for its exceptional lume, durable construction, and comfortable red rubber strap. Reviewers and owners alike highlight the textured dial, legible hands with red accents, and the ETA 2824-2 movement as strong points for the price. Some owners note a dislike for the deployment clasp on one of the included straps. Overall, owners rate the Farr + Swit Seaplane highly for its blend of classic dive and aviator design elements and impressive lume at its price point.
