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

The Sternglas Berlin is praised for its stylish Art Deco-inspired design and slim 38mm case, offering good value at $270 for newcomers to watches. One reviewer notes the Miyota GM02 quartz movement is accurate to ±20 seconds per month, but flags the included leather strap as squeaky and suggests an alternative. Overall, owners find the Sternglas Berlin a satisfying purchase for its aesthetic and price point.

CIGA Design SKELETON

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design SKELETON for its value and willingness to challenge established brands, with some surprised by its quality. One owner reports their CIGA Design Series Z in Black DLC has been perfect for over four years, keeping good time and looking neat. However, some find the skeletonized movement's visibility obscured by reflections due to the lack of anti-reflective coating on the crystal. One owner reported their CIGA Design Z Series Skeleton broke after three months with no customer service response. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design SKELETON highly for its surprising quality and value proposition.
