Reviews

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

Buyalov Модстер

Owners praise the Buyalov Модстер for its attractive no-date dial and sapphire crystal, with some noting good case finishing and unique designs. Accuracy varies, with one owner reporting +17 sec/day and another noting a Miyota 9039 movement. Some find the dial logo distracting and question the "homage" nature and Asian manufacturing, while payment and shipping issues are noted barriers to purchase. Some owners find the watch too massive, though others appreciate its original, rugged design. Overall, owners rate the Buyalov Модстер highly for its attractive design and sapphire crystal at a significantly lower price point than the original.

Eza 1972 Diver

Owners widely praise the Eza 1972 Diver for its faithful vintage design and excellent value, with one owner noting it surpasses other watches in bezel action, crown comfort, thinness, and packaging, all at a significantly lower price. The watch is noted for its thin 39.6mm case and impressive accuracy, running at nearly 0 seconds per day. Some find the bezel action a bit stiff. Overall, owners rate the Eza 1972 Diver highly for its vintage aesthetic and exceptional value proposition.

From video reviewers

The case finishing, with its mix of brushed and polished surfaces, is a notable strength. The price point of $995 USD is a point of contention, with one reviewer suggesting it may be high compared to competitors.
