What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Formex Essence Leggera FortyThree

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Formex Essence Leggera FortyThree for its exceptionally light and comfortable forged carbon case, innovative suspension system, and detailed CNC-cut dial. The chronometer-grade Sellita SW200-1 movement is noted for its accuracy, and the bracelet is described as fantastic. Some owners find the design not to their taste, and while its 43mm size and light weight contribute to good wearability, one reviewer notes the unique style limits versatility. The watch is considered pricey for a microbrand but worth the cost due to its quality and engineering. Overall, owners rate the Formex Essence Leggera FortyThree highly for its innovative construction and comfortable wearability.

Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik

The Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik is praised for its slim 9mm case and Bauhaus dial design, featuring clear hour markers and a framed date window. Owners note the upgraded Miyota 9015 movement with a 4Hz beat rate. Accuracy is reported as -10/+30 seconds per day, which is not ideal for precision enthusiasts. The five-link bracelet's lack of fitted end-links and the optional bracelet's chunkiness are flagged as areas lacking refinement. Overall, reviewers highlight the Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik's improved wearability and premium feel at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Bauhaus design is a strength. The value proposition is a weakness.
