What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen Promaster Skyhawk U830

The Citizen Promaster Skyhawk U830 is praised for its updated 43mm titanium case, legible memory-in-pixel display, and cleaner, less cluttered design compared to previous versions. Reviewers highlight its versatile contemporary look and enhanced functionality from the caliber U830, while owners appreciate the MIP display and screw-down caseback. Some users find the interface clunky and the face busy, particularly noting the "calendar" label and the lack of radio or GPS time synchronization, with one owner finding the 45mm size and busy subdials less useful for non-pilots. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Citizen Promaster Skyhawk U830 highly for its impressive technology and improved legibility in a contemporary package.

Horage Lensman 2

The Horage Lensman 2 is recognized for its innovative photographic exposure calculator bezel and legible dial, making it a functional tool for outdoor photography. Reviewers highlight its well-executed 39mm hybrid titanium and aluminum case, COSC-certified K2 GMT movement, and overall good sizing. The watch is priced at CHF 5,450. On balance, reviewers rate the Horage Lensman 2 highly for its unique functionality as a camera tool combined with its luxury micro-rotor GMT features.

From video reviewers

The K2 Micro-Rotor Calibre is a key innovation in the watch. The watch's prominent lug-to-lug fit may be noticeable compared to other watches. Reviewers disagree on the importance of the sliding exposure scale on the bi-directional bezel, with some considering it a unique feature for photographers and others not explicitly mentioning it as a notable aspect.
