What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Massena LAB Dato-Racer

Owners widely praise the Massena LAB Dato-Racer as an excellent everyday watch, appreciating its blend of 1970s-inspired aesthetics with modern dimensions. This model is a limited edition of 99 pieces. On balance, owners rate the Massena LAB Dato-Racer highly for its successful fusion of vintage design and contemporary wearability.

Farer FIELD

The Farer FIELD is praised for its refined 38mm case with a slimmer bezel, offering a larger, more legible dial and comfortable wearability. Owners highlight the textured dials, particularly the cream variant, as a standout feature, with some finding the premium price justified by Swiss manufacturing and the Sellita SW221-1 movement. The pointer date complication is also noted as a unique and appealing aspect. One owner reports daily wear since January and satisfaction with the balanced face and brushed steel. Some owners consider the $1,250 retail price steep for a field watch, though others feel the Swiss manufacturing and accurate movement warrant the cost. The Sellita SW221-1 movement provides a 41-hour power reserve. While the fully brushed case is practical, one reviewer suggested a polished bezel ring would enhance the aesthetic. An awkward gap above the crown is noted as a quirky design element. Water resistance is 150 meters.
