What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Erebus Watches Ascent 40 GMT

Owners widely praise the Erebus Watches ASCENT for its stunning dial and excellent lume, with many finding it gorgeous and beautiful beyond comprehension. The watch is also noted for its comfortable wearability, attributed to its 40mm case, and the bracelet's micro-adjustable clasp and well-finished screws receive specific commendation. Some owners consider the Miyota 9075 movement excellent for the price, with one reporting accuracy of +1 second per day. However, import duties are a significant concern for some buyers, and the polished case sides are noted to lack a scratch-resistant coating. On balance, owners rate the Erebus Watches ASCENT highly for its aesthetic appeal and comfortable wearability at its price point.

Lorier Roosevelt

Owners widely praise the Lorier Roosevelt's stunning dial, precise stamping, and clean printing, with its brass case and Horween strap also receiving positive remarks. Some owners find it wears perfectly on a 7" wrist. However, the Miyota 9-series rotor is noted as being "insanely loud," and the original $800 price point is considered steep by some, particularly given the lack of lume and competition. One owner sold it for $525, highlighting it as a great deal on a sold-out item. Overall, owners value the Lorier Roosevelt for its attractive dial and case finishing, though price and rotor noise are points of contention.
