Awake Watches Son Mài - Frosted Leaf « Royal Blue »

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Awake Watches Son Mài - Frosted Leaf « Royal Blue » for its spectacular, three-dimensional Son Mai lacquer dial with gold leaf, which is described as dazzling and a top-notch stunner. The polished hands and indexes are noted to appear to float above the dial, complemented by subtle blue lume. The watch is housed in a balanced 38mm stainless-steel case and powered by the automatic La Joux-Perret G101 movement. Some owners report positive customer service experiences. One reviewer criticized the default typeface of the "AWAKE" logo.

Farer Discovery II

Owners widely praise the Farer Discovery II for its bold plum dial and excellent case and bracelet design, noting its thin 39.5mm wearability makes it a dream to wear and suits all wrist sizes. The watch features a sunburst dial with varied color interpretations and a 68-hour power reserve from its La Joux Perret G101 automatic movement, and comes with both an OEM blue leather strap and a Farer bracelet. On balance, owners rate the Farer Discovery II highly for its comfortable wearability and attractive dial at the price.
