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.

Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto

The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto is praised for its high-accuracy quartz movement, with owners noting its comfort and reliable performance. Reviewers highlight its functional tool-watch appeal, featuring a sandblasted steel case, tritium tubes for constant low-light visibility, and 100-meter water resistance. One owner finds the 41mm case runs a bit small. The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto utilizes an ETA F06.412 quartz movement with a claimed accuracy of +/- 10 seconds per year and includes a GMT bidirectional bezel. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto highly for its comfortable wear and dependable, high-accuracy quartz movement.
