Reviews

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

Bulova Racer Chronograph

Owners praise the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427 for its fresh racing chronograph designs and dial aesthetics. Some owners find the 42mm case size larger than preferred. The faux-rally strap's non-functional perforations are noted, and one owner suggests the chronograph function may only track seconds, not fractions. Some anticipate price drops due to its quartz movement. Overall, owners rate the Bulova Black Dial Leather Strap Racer Chronograph 98B427 positively for its racing-inspired dial aesthetics, though some find the case size large and the strap design questionable.

Filippo Loreti Watches Ascari Grand Prix GP

Owners widely report significant shipping delays and poor quality control issues with Filippo Loreti watches, with some stating the brand is overpriced for its components and marketing. Some owners find the watches beautiful and appreciate the unique designs and decent quality for the price, with helpful customer service and no issues daily-ing their watches for years. However, other owners report watches stopping working within a year and suggest they are fashion brands with cheaply produced movements, with complaints about being "overpriced crap" and a "scam." On balance, the consensus among owners is that Filippo Loreti watches are a risky purchase due to widespread quality and customer service concerns, despite some appreciating their aesthetic appeal.
