Owners widely praise the Echo/Neutra Averau 39 Moon Phase for its excellent 39mm size, gorgeous dial, and unique moon phase complication, with many highlighting its clear display and great detail and finishing. The watch is noted for its heavily lumed hands and indicators, providing excellent night visibility, and an amazing bracelet with great overall fit and finish. Some owners find the moon phase complication difficult to set accurately, while others describe it as easy to set. One owner found the watch thicker than expected, though it sits well on the wrist. Overall, owners rate the Echo/Neutra Averau 39 Moon Phase highly for its unique design elements and impressive finishing at the 39mm size.
The moon phase complication is a notable strength, integrating a high-end feature into a field watch design. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any specific weaknesses.
Owners widely report the Edox 1961 Date Automatic Limited Edition offers great value, benefiting from Sellita automatic movements. One owner notes that Edox watches are of fine quality, accurate, and built to last, recommending purchase without hesitation. A reviewer flags that while the 41mm case size is generally well-proportioned and wears thinner than expected, the bracelet lacks quick-release ends and micro-adjustments. The watch is less recognized in the USA compared to Europe. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Edox 1961 Date Automatic Limited Edition highly for its value and build quality at the price point.
