Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Formex Essence ThirtyNine is praised for its impressive build quality and value, featuring a patented case suspension system for comfort and protection. It houses a COSC-certified Sellita SW200-1 movement with a 38-hour power reserve and a tool-free strap quick-release system. A minor inconvenience noted is the specific closing order of the clasp. On balance, reviewers rate the Formex Essence ThirtyNine highly for its comfortable wearability and excellent value at its price point.
Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangomat ruthenium for its Glashütte watchmaking and Bauhaus design, with one owner noting accuracy at +2 seconds/day and a 43-hour power reserve. Some owners find the Tangomat thicker than other models, with case proportions that may not suit its sharp design, and one owner expressed a preference for newer movements over the older Epsilon automatic. Overall, owners value the NOMOS Glashütte Tangomat ruthenium for its precise timekeeping and design ethos.
