What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Breitling Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic

Owners widely praise the Breitling Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic for its gorgeous aesthetics, with many singling out the popping blue dial and the overall quality from movement to finish. The 42mm case is considered a favorite for its wearability and fit on many wrists, and its versatility for dressing up or down is frequently highlighted. The clasp on Breitling's rubber straps is a noted favorite. Some owners report a "crunchy" bezel rotation, deeming it disappointing for the price, and a few find the watch too heavy or chunky, wishing for a smaller option, though others appreciate its substantial presence. Overall, owners rate the Breitling Superocean Heritage B20 Automatic highly for its appealing design and comfortable wearability on a variety of straps.

IWC Schaffhausen Iw501705 Portugieser Automatic

Owners widely praise the IWC Schaffhausen Iw501705 Portugieser Automatic for its timeless beauty, stunning design, and pure class, with particular admiration for the dial's depth and brilliance achieved through 15 layers of lacquer. The 7-day power reserve, housed within a 42.4mm case, is a significant draw, often noted as a compelling feature for a watch of this size. Some owners find the 42.4mm case to be on the larger side, with one owner preferring it on a strap over a bracelet and another noting it was pushing the size limit for a 6.25" wrist. A desire for smaller case size options, specifically 38mm or 36-38mm, is also expressed by multiple owners. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the IWC Schaffhausen Iw501705 Portugieser Automatic highly for its captivating aesthetics and impressive 7-day power reserve.
