Certina DS-7 ChronographvsSternglas Tachymeter

The Certina DS-7 Chronograph is praised for its refined case finishing and dial, with one owner finding it wears better than alternatives. Reviewers note its 41mm case, 12.15mm thickness, and quartz G10.212 movement, with the collection offering diverse finishes and dial colors. Some owners find the lugs polarizing, preferring a more traditional design. Overall, owners rate the Certina DS-7 Chronograph highly for its case finishing and dial at the price.

The Sternglas Tachymeter is praised for its sporty chronograph design and wrist presence, offering character without being an overt tool watch. Reviewers note an upscale design with a colored aluminum bezel insert and more colorful dial options compared to its predecessor. The watch is considered good value for its design, functionality, and small-brand cachet, with a charming youthfulness in its colorful dial options. One reviewer points out that the "orange" on one model appears yellow and suggests a tachymeter scale extending to 200 would be more useful than the current 500. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Tachymeter highly for its competitive price and appealing, youthful design.
