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.

Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Blue

Owners widely praise the Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Blue for its versatile design, pleasant manual winding action, and the value offered by its Sellita SW200-2 automatic movement, especially considering its USA assembly. The textured dial, often described as a "sandpaper dial" that shines in the sun, along with applied numerals and dark blue hands, are frequently highlighted as attractive features. Its 38mm or 39mm diameter and 47mm lug-to-lug dimensions are noted for good wearability on smaller wrists, though one owner found it necessary to remove four links for a proper fit. The lume is described as legible but dim. Overall, owners rate the Cincinnati Watch Company The Cincinnatus Blue highly for its distinctive dial and value at the price point.
