Arcanaut ARC IIvsMeridiano Watches Lost Astronaut

The Arcanaut ARC II is praised for its attractive machining, polished finish, comfortable ergonomic shape, and unique design, with reviewers highlighting its striking Fordite dial and balanced, minimalist case. However, legibility is a significant issue due to the artistic Fordite dials lacking markers, making precise time-telling difficult. The Soprod A10 movement's 42-hour power reserve is considered dated, and daily accuracy could not be determined due to the lack of a running seconds hand. On balance, reviewers find the Arcanaut ARC II to be a unique and comfortable wear, though legibility is a notable drawback.

The Meridiano Watches Lost Astronaut is praised for its bold, colorful, and amazing dial with creative lume application. Owners express strong desire and satisfaction with the aesthetic, with one builder noting appreciation for the case's match with the dial and oversized hands. The watch is described as a custom build using parts from various sources. Overall, owners rate the Meridiano Watches Lost Astronaut highly for its unique and exciting dial design.
