What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Beaufort Aerotimer

Owners widely praise the Beaufort Aerotimer for its handsome, high-contrast salmon dial and museum-quality finishing, creating a sharp dress field watch with excellent legibility and a crisp California dial. One owner notes the power reserve is closer to 30-34 hours than advertised and finds the 11.45mm thickness slightly noticeable, while another would change the strap. Lume on the 3 and 9 o'clock markers is reportedly poor. Overall, owners rate the Beaufort Aerotimer highly for its vintage style and beautiful craftsmanship at its price point.

Oak & Oscar The Olmsted Matte

Oak & Oscar The Olmsted Matte is praised for its stealthy, modern field watch aesthetic, featuring a durable ceramic-coated steel case and a clean, no-date dial. Reviewers highlight its comfortable 38mm dimensions and 100m water resistance. The watch offers exceptional value at $1,475, including two straps and a travel wallet, with a modified ETA 2892-A2 movement. One reviewer notes the ceramic coating may develop patina with heavy wear. Overall, reviewers rate Oak & Oscar The Olmsted Matte highly for its stealthy design and value proposition.
