Reviews

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

Duxot Colmar Automatic

Owners praise the Duxot Colmar Automatic for its appealing design and well-made construction, noting its reliable Seiko NH35 movement. Some find the watch overpriced for its components, while one owner wishes the lume lasted longer. Overall, owners appreciate the Duxot Colmar Automatic for its unique aesthetic and solid build at its price point.

From video reviewers

The case finishing and applied indices are strong points. The bracelet design was not consistently described.

Maen Manhattan Ultra Thin

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Maen Manhattan Ultra Thin for its attractive integrated bracelet, slim profile, and novel dial textures, with specific mentions of a blue tapestry dial and a hammered "Tuscan" dial. The watch is noted for its elegant, vintage-inspired styling and comfortable wearability, especially given its thin case. Some reviewers desire a small seconds sub-dial or a 38mm case option, and one owner found the black text on a vertically striped dial difficult to read. The integrated bracelet is noted to lack a quick-release system, and one review suggests the 47mm lug-to-lug distance makes the 37mm case wear larger than its dimensions. It is powered by a manual-wind ETA Pesaux 7001 movement with a power reserve of approximately 42 hours or two days. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Maen Manhattan Ultra Thin highly for its elegant design and slim profile at its price point.

From video reviewers

The ultra-thin profile is a standout feature. The value proposition is a point of discussion.
