What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic

Owners praise the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic for its dial depth created by elevated numerals, a deeply signed buckle, and detailed case sides. The watch is also noted for being practically mark-free with no dings found, and comes with a barely worn brown leather AVI-8 OEM strap. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 Spitfire Smith Automatic highly for its detailed finishing and pristine condition.

Sternglas Naos Automatik Edition Oxford

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos Automatik Edition Oxford for its elegant Bauhaus design, particularly the "Alabaster" dial described as a warm grey, beige, or silver, and its well-proportioned handset with distinctive red accents. The compact lugs and sapphire crystal are also highlighted as positive design elements contributing to its wearability. However, some owners find the movement audible and the small crown difficult to grip, making winding and setting inconvenient. One owner noted the finishing is not comparable to higher-end brands. On balance, owners rate the Sternglas Naos Automatik Edition Oxford highly for its attractive, affordable Bauhaus aesthetic and versatile wearability.
