Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Edox Grand Ocean Automatic for its impressive finishing and quality at its price point, with some noting it wears smaller than its 40mm case dimensions suggest. A reviewer found the watch charming and comfortable, though they flagged unnecessary dial labeling and less robust lume compared to dedicated sport watches. One owner noted difficulties finding aftermarket strap options for the Edox Grand Ocean Automatic. On balance, owners and reviewers generally regard the Edox Grand Ocean Automatic positively for its build quality and comfortable wearability.
Owners praise the Edox SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic for its vintage-inspired design and 38mm case size, appealing to those seeking smaller watches. The build quality is considered solid, with reviewers noting the domed sapphire crystal adds charm, though it can cause reflections and contributes to a 13.7mm thickness. The Caliber 80 (SW 200) automatic movement is appreciated, but its 38-hour power reserve is flagged as a drawback by some. Owners are split on sizing, with some wishing for options between 38mm and 42mm. Overall, owners and reviewers view the Edox SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic positively for its retro dimensions and build quality at its price point.
