What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Bell & Ross BR-05 GMT Sky Blue

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Bell & Ross BR-05 GMT Sky Blue for its excellent finishing, sharp transitions between brushed and polished surfaces, and attractive blue sunray dial. It is noted to wear well on wrists under 6.5 inches. Some owners question its value proposition due to the Sellita movement, and one owner finds the crown can be fussy to use, while another notes sharp edges on the bracelet links. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Bell & Ross BR-05 GMT Sky Blue highly for its cohesive package and attractive case execution.

Fears Brunswick (Anthracite)

The Fears Brunswick (Anthracite) is praised for its anthracite dial with raised Arabic numerals and unique eye-dropper hands, which shift from anthracite to silver in different light. Its 38mm cushion case is noted for its contoured design that fits well on the wrist. One owner found the case back to be a letdown. The manually wound ETA 7001 movement offers a 38-40 hour power reserve without hacking seconds. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Fears Brunswick (Anthracite) for its distinctive dial and comfortable wearability.
