Some owners note a dislike for the deployment clasp on one of the included straps. Overall, owners rate the Farr + Swit Seaplane highly for its blend of classic dive and aviator design elements and impressive lume at its price point.
Owners widely praise the Lorier Hyperion SII for its vintage aesthetic, glossy black dial, and tasteful text. One owner notes the Miyota 9075 movement and calls it the best GMT under $800. Criticisms include a small GMT hand that is difficult to spot, and one user found the winding action not smooth with significant crown resistance. Overall, owners rate the Lorier Hyperion SII highly for its vintage aesthetic and value.
The GMT functionality is a key strength. The Miyota 9075 movement's 42-hour power reserve is a drawback. Reviewers disagreed on the value proposition at the price point.
