What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Oak & Oscar The Humboldt ExP-02

Oak & Oscar The Humboldt ExP-02 is a 39.5mm stainless steel tool watch featuring a unique, layered aluminum "ghost dial" for legibility and 200m water resistance, powered by a Sellita SW300 movement. Its appeal is limited by a US$2,550 price and an extremely limited production of 20 pieces, with its experimental dial construction done in Chicago. Overall, reviewers highlight the endearing dial and in-house bezel production as key features of the Oak & Oscar Humboldt ExP-02.

Maen Manhattan 37 seconde/seconde/

The Maen Manhattan 37 seconde/seconde/ is widely praised for its dressy styling and perceived step up in quality from other microbrands in its price bracket. Reviewers highlight its slim 9.3mm case, 100m water resistance, and comfortable integrated bracelet as key strengths, with the dark blue dial and hand-painted NYC references described as a hauntingly cool and versatile feature. The Sellita SW200-1 movement powers the time-only display, and the $1,499 price is considered good value. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Maen Manhattan 37 seconde/seconde/ highly for its unique dial and slim, versatile design at its price point.
