What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer FIELD

The Farer FIELD is praised for its refined 38mm case with a slimmer bezel, offering a larger, more legible dial and comfortable wearability. Owners highlight the textured dials, particularly the cream variant, as a standout feature, with some finding the premium price justified by Swiss manufacturing and the Sellita SW221-1 movement. The pointer date complication is also noted as a unique and appealing aspect. One owner reports daily wear since January and satisfaction with the balanced face and brushed steel. Some owners consider the $1,250 retail price steep for a field watch, though others feel the Swiss manufacturing and accurate movement warrant the cost. The Sellita SW221-1 movement provides a 41-hour power reserve. While the fully brushed case is practical, one reviewer suggested a polished bezel ring would enhance the aesthetic. An awkward gap above the crown is noted as a quirky design element. Water resistance is 150 meters.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
