The numbers, the dial colors, the calibers — laid out so you can stop flipping between tabs.
Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Breitling Superocean Heritage B31 Automatic for its excellent finishing and comfortable wearability, with many appreciating the sunburst dials and the redesigned mesh bracelet. The watch is noted for its versatile design, suitable for daily wear and swimming, and some owners find its weight surprisingly manageable due to the lug shape and bracelet design. The Breitling B31 movement offers a 78-hour power reserve and COSC certification. However, the watch's design is divisive, with some disliking its aesthetic and others criticizing the use of a Sellita SW200 movement at its price point, though discounts are seen to mitigate this. Some owners also find the watch too large for smaller wrists due to its lug-to-lug distance, and the white date display at 6 o'clock is a point of contention for some. Overall, owners rate the Breitling Superocean Heritage B31 Automatic highly for its finishing and comfortable wearability, despite some design and movement criticisms.
Owners widely praise the Dan Henry 1970 for its striking looks, particularly the art deco hands and fantastic crystal. The 44mm size is noted as a drawback for wrists under 7 inches, and one owner reported strap change marks inside the lugs and a small mark on the clasp. The watch features a 41-hour power reserve and 200-meter water resistance. Overall, owners rate the Dan Henry 1970 highly for its distinctive vintage-inspired design and value at $295.
