What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer Discovery II

The Farer Discovery II is widely praised for its comfortable 39.5mm wearability, suiting all wrist sizes and occasions, and its bold plum sunburst dial, which exhibits varied color interpretations. Owners also highlight the excellent case and bracelet design, with one noting it is a "dream to wear." The La Joux Perret G101 automatic movement provides a 68-hour power reserve. On balance, owners rate the Farer Discovery II highly for its comfortable wearability and attractive dial at the price.

Hamilton Jazzmaster Open Heart Auto

The Hamilton Jazzmaster Open Heart Auto is noted for its dressy yet versatile design, featuring striking gradient dials and intricately shaped cutouts that reveal the H-10 movement. It boasts an 80-hour power reserve and Nivachron hairspring. The watch is available in 36mm, 40mm, or 42mm stainless steel cases. On balance, the Hamilton Jazzmaster Open Heart Auto is appreciated for its visually engaging dial and movement display at its price point.

From video reviewers

The smoked dial's precision cutouts offer a captivating view of the automatic movement. Legibility is compromised by the open-heart design.
