Astor + Banks Fortitude LitevsGavox Watches Longitude

The Astor + Banks Fortitude Lite is praised for its reduced 10.9mm thickness and redesigned lugs that turn down, along with the removal of the date complication. One owner finds the white dial Fortitude Lite a good watch but not worth $650, suggesting better value from other brands, while another simply states it looks better than a specific alternative. Overall, owners praise the Astor + Banks Fortitude Lite for its wearability due to its thinner case and redesigned lugs.

Owners widely praise the Gavox Watches Gavox Longitude for its 39mm size, integrated bracelet, and Kolsterised case and bracelet, with finishing described as amazing and the blue dial as gorgeous. Reviewers note the distinctive faceted case with polished and brushed finishes, and the Miyota 9075 GMT movement with an independent hour hand. One owner highlighted exceptional personal customer service from the brand's founder. However, its 12.8mm thickness makes it sit tall, and the quick-release spring bars on the bracelet were initially frustrating. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Gavox Watches Gavox Longitude highly for its unique design and functional GMT movement at its price point.
