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.

Zelos Nova 37

Owners widely praise the Zelos Nova 37's spectacular 37mm dimensions and extremely light, thin wearability. The meteorite dial is frequently highlighted as a captivating feature, though some reviewers suggest simpler indices would improve legibility over the Arabic numerals. The watch is considered a considerable value at $1,999. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Zelos Nova 37 highly for its excellent dimensions and dial execution at the price.

From video reviewers

The wafer-thin case and intricate dial textures are standout features. The quality of the stock leather strap is a shared concern. Reviewers differed on whether the 37mm or 38mm case size was more accurate.
