The AV86 1988 Moonphase features a unique balance wheel detail representing the sun, though this is not visible when worn. Owners suggest that AVI-8 is a fashion watch brand, with some indicating that better quality alternatives exist at this price point, while acknowledging the appeal of the designs. Overall, owners find the AV86 1988 Moonphase appealing for its design, despite some suggesting better value elsewhere.

The IWC Schaffhausen Iw359002 Portofino Complete Calendar is praised for its elegant presentation of calendar functions with a balanced dial, gold accents, and a fully polished 41mm case. Owners and reviewers note the new complete calendar module with independent sub-dials for day, date, month, and moon phase, powered by the automatic IWC 32150 calibre with a 72-hour power reserve. However, the truncated Roman numerals at 6 and 12 o'clock are a point of contention for some, and one owner finds its 11.8mm thickness noticeable, attributing it to its modular movement construction. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the IWC Schaffhausen Iw359002 Portofino Complete Calendar for its elegant dial design and calendar complication, despite some reservations about the hour marker truncation and case thickness.
