Reviews

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

Erebus Watches Twenty-Four

Owners widely praise the Erebus Watches Twenty-Four for its comfortable wearability and appealing color options, with one owner specifically noting the helpfulness of the included strap adjustment tool. The watch offers a novel 24-hour display within a robust field watch design, featuring a 40mm case with 100m water resistance. Some find the dial text too prominent and contrasty, while others debate if its 12-hour movement qualifies it as a true 24-hour watch. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Erebus Twenty-Four a solid offering, particularly for its unique aesthetic and value.

Formex Field Automatic

The Formex Field Automatic is widely praised for its durable, scratch-resistant Grade 2 titanium case with a hardening treatment, offering robust and lightweight wearability. Owners and reviewers highlight the upmarket feel and legibility of its complex dials, the comfort provided by quick-release straps and carbon clasps, and the value it presents under $1000. The Sellita SW200-1 movement is considered a practical choice, with one owner reporting accuracy of +1 second per day. Some find the numeral typography less appealing, and one reviewer notes the lume application is thin and not long-lasting. The watch is priced at $870 or £695. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Formex Field Automatic highly for its comfortable, lightweight titanium construction and well-executed, legible dials at its price point.

From video reviewers

The titanium case construction and the sandwich dial are consistently praised. Reviewers noted a perceived "corner cut" and questioned the value at its price point.
