Brillier FliegervsLorier Astra

Owners widely praise the Brillier Flieger's well-brushed stainless steel case and its 39mm size, though some find the 13mm thickness a bit substantial. Accuracy is consistently reported as exceptional, with readings around +0.4 seconds per day. Opinions are split on the lume, with one owner describing it as "INTENSE" and fully lumed, while another found it weak and short-lasting. The included straps are generally considered undesirable. Overall, owners rate the Brillier Flieger highly for its excellent accuracy and case finishing at the price point.

The Lorier Astra is praised for its outstanding details and design language, hitting a "dressy sports watch" vibe with a beautiful sector dial and lume. Owners note its versatile, do-it-all design with classic proportions and refined details like beveled markers, making it suitable for both formal and casual wear. The watch wears slightly larger than its 36mm case suggests, closer to 38mm, with lugs that taper and curve downward to fit well on smaller wrists. However, the bracelet feels a bit light, some screws are difficult to remove, and the Miyota movement can gain around 8 seconds in 12 hours with potentially offset date numerals. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Astra highly for its dressy sports watch aesthetic and refined details at its price point.
