What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Breitling Navitimer 32

The Breitling Navitimer 32's black eye blue dial is praised for its vibrancy in sunlight, though one owner expressed a preference for a reverse panda dial. Owners express confidence in the watch's longevity but strongly advise against water exposure, noting its low water resistance and non-screw-down pushers make it unsuitable for anything beyond splashes and hand washing. Servicing can be lengthy and expensive, with Breitling typically offering only full overhauls. Opinions are split on the size, with some finding the 43mm variant too large for a 7-inch wrist, while others praise the pistachio dial as "fire" and the overall design as "stunning." Some owners report issues with packaging and smudged fingerprints, though one received an immaculate watch. Overall, owners rate the Breitling Navitimer 32 highly for its aesthetic appeal, with the dial design being a particular point of praise.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
