What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer PILOT SERIES II

Owners widely praise the Farer PILOT SERIES II for its purposeful design, remarkable legibility, and trademark use of color, with many finding its 39mm case and 45mm lug-to-lug dimensions to be perfect proportions. Some owners, however, find the watch pricey and note its use of grade 2 titanium. Opinions are split on the minute numerals on the black dial, with some finding them less appealing. One owner noted a misaligned Roman I index on a specific model. On balance, owners rate the Farer PILOT SERIES II highly for its unique dial designs and excellent wearability.

Venezianico Nereide Lapislazzuli

Owners widely praise the Venezianico Nereide for its exceptional dial work, particularly the mother-of-pearl blue and lapis lazuli variants, and its well-executed case finishing with consistent brushing and polished edges. The 39mm version is noted for its thin 10mm profile and comfortable wearability, while the bracelet is generally considered good quality. Some owners feel the NH45a movement is a drawback, preferring a thinner and more accurate caliber. One owner specifically noted weak lume on the seconds hand and bezel triangle, along with some play in the crown's hand-setting on the 39mm model. On balance, owners rate the Venezianico Nereide highly for its stunning dial options and refined finishing at its price point.
