Reviews

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

Awake Watches Son Mài

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.

From video reviewers

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.

Farer Discovery Olive

Owners widely praise the Farer Discovery Olive for its wearability and versatility, with many noting its fit and finishing on the case and bracelet outperforms its price point. The watch features crisp indices and hands, an unusual olive dial color, and a bracelet design that owners find comfortable. One owner reports the watch runs at +8 seconds per day, and another notes the optional bracelet does not sit flush with the case. Overall, owners rate the Farer Discovery Olive highly for its exceptional fit and finishing at its price point.
