Reviews

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

Bremont The Meta Kronos

Owners widely praise the Bremont The Meta Kronos for its comfortable 40mm size and retro sapphire crystal. The watch is also described as a "strap monster" with a simple dial and GMT functionality. One owner notes a preference for a blue crown ring over the black one. This specific edition features a custom dial with "move fast" text and Meta-specific colors, powered by a modified automatic movement. The Bremont The Meta Kronos was offered for $3700 plus shipping. Overall, owners rate Bremont The Meta Kronos highly for its comfortable wearability and retro aesthetic.

Thorn Titanium 39mm Automatic Dive Watch

Owners widely praise the Thorn Titanium 39mm Automatic Dive Watch for its exceptional lightness and comfort due to its titanium construction, with many highlighting the impressive finishing and the "game-changer" tool-free bracelet adjustment system. The lume is also frequently called out as superior. However, some owners find the watch wears a little small, and one owner returned it due to a ghost-date issue and the watch stopping once every 24 hours, with another reporting the watch stopped when the seconds hand reached 60. The design is described by one owner as somewhat uninspired, aside from the custom dial, due to common mod parts. Overall, owners rate the Thorn Titanium 39mm Automatic Dive Watch highly for its wearability and bracelet system.
