What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer 36MM THREE HAND

The Farer 36MM THREE HAND is praised for its vibrant dials, compact 1960s-inspired design with fluid lines and slim bezel, and a 68-hour power reserve from its La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement. Reviewers note the 39mm stainless steel case features polished finishes and brushed lugs, a screwed-down crown, and 100m water resistance. Some models include Super-LumiNova Arabic numerals and applied markers with syringe hands. One reviewer found the included red strap too thick and stiff, and the minute hashes difficult to read. On balance, reviewers highlight the unique dial colors and textures, along with the accessible price point, as key strengths of the Farer 36MM THREE HAND collection.

Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch

Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch owners praise its tritium tubes, Mil-spec designation, and scratch-resistant case finish, with some finding the 36mm size practical for field use. However, some owners criticize its perceived overpriced nature, thick case, and squared-off lugs, while others point to the composite case material, 30m water resistance, and unbranded movement as drawbacks. On balance, owners are divided on the Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch, with opinions split on its value and design features.
