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.

Ferro PISTA

The Ferro PISTA is widely praised for its exciting and thrilling driving experience, with owners highlighting its faultless handling and a powerful engine that makes other cars feel primitive. Reviewers and owners alike appreciate its beautiful and effective design, noting features like the air pass-through on the hood as particularly attractive. Some owners find the Ferro PISTA's performance and aerodynamics desirable, while others note its tighter suspension and hard-shifting experience as a special, raw characteristic. On balance, owners rate the Ferro PISTA highly for its thrilling performance and striking design.
