DOXA Sub 300T TivsSquale 1521

Owners widely praise the Doxa Sub 300T Ti for its charming, enduring design and excellent bezel action. Reviewers and owners alike note its comfortable 42.5mm cushion case and smooth winding action. Accuracy is reported as excellent, with one owner seeing +/-1.5 seconds per day and another noting it keeps time within COSC specifications. The BOR bracelet offers practical micro-adjustments, though some find its limited articulation at the end link impacts wearability on smaller wrists. The 18mm lug width is noted as limiting strap options, and one reviewer misses the vintage charm of a domed crystal, finding the flat sapphire less engaging. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Doxa Sub 300T Ti highly for its unique design and comfortable wearability.

Owners widely praise the Squale 1521 for its classic look and robust build, with specific mentions of its wearable 12.5mm thickness and refined case finishing. The 42mm case is noted by some to wear smaller, closer to 40mm, due to short lugs, feeling solid without being too large. However, opinions on the bracelet vary, with some finding it too flashy or stiff, and one owner reported moisture ingress after a shower due to a loose case back. The crown can be difficult to operate due to deep integration, and the 38-hour power reserve is considered old-school but reliable. Overall, owners rate the Squale 1521 highly for its classic design and wearability, despite some reservations about the bracelet and crown.
