What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Echo/Neutra Averau Ceramic 3H

The Echo/Neutra Averau Ceramic 3H is widely praised for its full lume dial and accessible ceramic and titanium construction. Owners appreciate the quality feel of the bracelet and the reliable Sellita SW200-1 movement, with one noting excellent underwater water resistance. Despite some owners finding the 51.5mm lug-to-lug measurement too large for smaller wrists, another found the 13mm thickness did not feel bulky. There is a split opinion on the double index at 12 o'clock, and one owner reports a loud rotor. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Echo/Neutra Averau Ceramic 3H highly for its striking full lume dial and innovative material construction at its price point.

Tissot PR516

The Tissot PR516 is widely praised for its vintage-inspired design, robust and well-finished case, and the value it offers. Owners and reviewers frequently highlight its crisp dials, heritage inspiration, and modern refinements like the Powermatic 80 movement. Some owners appreciate its size and jubilee bracelet, finding it comfortable and a good alternative to other models. However, several sources note a 14mm thickness that can feel noticeable, and the bracelet clasp is considered a weak point by one reviewer, being a folded steel design. The case design is described by some as unrefined or boring, lacking the appeal of the original 70s model, and one enthusiast finds the hands a dealbreaker. The fixed bezel on some variants is seen as a gimmick by some owners, and the orange subdial hand can be difficult to read. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Tissot PR516 highly for its strong vintage aesthetic and robust build quality at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Valjoux automatic movement is a key strength. The price point of €2,145 is a point of contention.
