Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Awake Watches Son Mài is praised for its step up in finishing and attention to detail, featuring impressive handcrafted dials with silver leaf gilding and lacquered colors, combined with excellent Super-LumiNova application. Its 39mm recycled steel case is comfortable and works well as a daily watch, though the dial design makes it wear larger. The dial features meticulous lacquer work and a hidden, hand-chiselled silhouette. The La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement offers a 68-hour power reserve. Overall, reviewers highly regard the Awake Watches Son Mài for its impressive handcrafted dials and comfortable 39mm case.
The Son Mài's lacquer dial is consistently praised for its depth and intricate detail. Sharp lugs are cited as a drawback affecting comfort. Reviewers disagree on the value proposition compared to luxury brands.
Owners widely praise the Awake Watches Son Mài – Collector set for its stunning, handcrafted Son Mai lacquered dials, featuring elements like silver leaf gilding and guilloché patterns, which reviewers describe as "cosmically phenomenal" and "truly spectacular." The 39mm recycled steel case is noted for its comfortable wearability, with some finding it wears larger than its dimensions suggest. The La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement is considered decent, and the watch is praised for its artisanal finishing and value. Some reviewers prefer a sub-10mm thickness, and one owner felt the applied logo detracted from the dial's sophistication. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Awake Watches Son Mài – Collector set highly for its unique, artisanal dial work and comfortable wearability at its price point.
