What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer MOONPHASE

Owners widely praise the Farer MOONPHASE for its unique design, hand-painted moon elements, and satisfying construction, with many highlighting the X1 Super-LumiNova indices and numerals for excellent nighttime legibility. The watch features a 38.5mm cushion case with a distinctive "grain twist" finish and is powered by a Sellita SW288-1 Ma Elaboré Grade movement. Some owners find the moonphase complication easy to set and appreciate the brand's customer service. However, opinions are divided on the price, with some finding it a bit high, and the lume on the hands and hour markers receives mixed feedback, with one owner describing it as "absolute trash" and another as "almost non-existent" while others note its legibility. The thickness of the included leather straps is also mentioned as a trade-off. Overall, owners rate the Farer MOONPHASE highly for its unique character and hand-crafted details at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Farer MOONPHASE has amazing lume and a reliable movement. The case finishing is not perfect, with a polishing flaw. Reviewers disagree on the watch's design, with one highlighting the unique moonphase complication and range of designs, while the other does not mention any specific design-related issues.

Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Field Black Automatic

Owners widely praise the Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Field Black Automatic as a stunning and well-made watch for the money, highlighting its textured dial, applied gilt numerals, and handset. The 38mm size is considered a comfortable fit, even on larger wrists, and the micro-adjust bracelet is a notable feature. Owners also appreciate the satisfying winding action of the Sellita SW200-2 Power+ movement and the alternating polishing and brushing on the bezel. Some owners, however, dislike the dial design or prefer a glossy black dial over the textured one, and one owner noted the watch comes on a NATO strap only. Overall, owners rate the Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Field Black Automatic highly for its value, build quality, and appealing design details at its price point.
