What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sternglas Berlin Automatik

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Berlin Automatik for its handsome, clean dial and a 38mm size that fits smaller wrists well, making it a comfortable daily wearer. The case is described as solid and well-finished. However, the Miyota 8205 movement is noted as reliable but noticeably loud, and the exhibition caseback is unadorned. Some owners find the watch too simple and question the value, citing basic movement and strap choices for the price, with a few feeling the proportions and day/date complication are off. Overall, owners appreciate the Sternglas Berlin Automatik for its classic design and wearability, though some debate its value proposition.

Sugess MoonPhase Master S389

Owners widely praise the Sugess MoonPhase Master S389 for its beautiful dial and glowing moonphase, with some finding it a stunner that exceeds expectations and a bargain for the price. However, reviewers and owners alike flag rotor noise and thickness as potential drawbacks, and one owner reported receiving a defective unit. Accuracy is reported at -6 seconds per day, and while the dial features applied markers and polished hands, the movement finishing is noted as rough under magnification. Overall, owners rate the Sugess MoonPhase Master S389 highly for its aesthetic appeal and value, despite some concerns regarding rotor noise and build quality consistency.
