Owners widely praise the Farr + Swit Gamer 8 Bit for its strong 1980s and Tron-like aesthetic, with one owner calling it a gorgeous, dope, and bomb-ass watch. Some owners find the static dial image and strap to be cheap, and the $525 price tag steep for a quartz movement, though others note the watch has no cheap feel and its black and teal face with neon pink accents is attractive. A desire for a smaller 38mm size was also expressed. Overall, owners rate the Farr + Swit Gamer 8 Bit highly for its distinct 1980s aesthetic and attractive colorway.
