Reviews

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

Autran & Viala Plano Bauhaus

Owners widely praise the Autran & Viala PLANOBAUHAUS for its high-end look and feel at its price point, with specific mentions of the stepped dial, slim lugs, and comfortable 7mm thin case. The Swiss quartz movement is recommended for reliability and aligns with the Bauhaus aesthetic, and the sapphire crystal and Ickler case are also noted. However, one owner flags a crooked black dial alignment and describes the mesh bracelet as looking cheap. Overall, owners rate the Autran & Viala PLANOBAUHAUS highly for its Bauhaus aesthetic and comfortable, slim case at an accessible price.

Casio MQ-24

Owners widely praise the Casio MQ-24 for its extreme affordability, comfortable and lightweight wear, excellent legibility, and minimalistic design. Many appreciate its near-silent operation and find it to be a reliable and accurate timepiece, with one owner reporting theirs lasted nearly a decade. Some owners note the lack of a date complication and an uninspiring crown action as downsides. Overall, owners rate the Casio MQ-24 highly for its value and core time-telling functionality.

From video reviewers

The Casio MQ-24's minimalist dial design offers exceptional legibility. The resin case scratches easily. Reviewers disagreed on the accuracy of the quartz movement.
