Reviews

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

Audaz Ocean Raider

Owners report the Audaz Ocean Raider offers amazing lume, serving as a less expensive alternative to higher-end dive watches. One owner notes the watch feels a bit big on smaller wrists. Another owner describes the watch as being in 87% condition due to slight marks on the case sides and back, with a worn aftermarket strap. On balance, owners appreciate the Audaz Ocean Raider for its strong lume and value proposition, though size may be a consideration for those with smaller wrists.

DOXA SUB 200 II

Owners widely report the DOXA SUB 200 II wears smaller than its 44mm case size suggests due to its shape and lug length, and praise its new fumé dials. Reviewers note the collection's retro style, 200m water resistance, and the inclusion of beige Super-LumiNova. Some owners and reviewers criticize the watch for increasing in size and price, going against current downsizing trends, and the Sellita SW200-1 movement's 38-hour power reserve is flagged as less competitive than others. The Milanese bracelet is also mentioned as a potentially divisive feature, and the lack of on-the-fly clasp adjustment is noted. Overall, owners and reviewers find the DOXA SUB 200 II appealing for its retro design and unique fumé dials, despite concerns about its size and price increase.
