What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Fortis Novonaut N-42

Owners widely praise the Fortis B-42 Official Cosmonauts for its stunning fit and finish, excellent legibility, and a precise, grippy bezel, with one owner calling its bracelet the nicest they've ever owned. The Fortis Novonaut N-42 is described as a flawless beast with a WERK 17 column-wheel chronograph movement, featuring enhanced shock resistance and COSC adjustment, and is noted as a handsome tool watch with a beautiful dial and nice pusher action. However, the 42mm case of the B-42 wears larger than expected, and the Novonaut's 44mm case and chunky bracelet make it too large and heavy for many. The Fortis Titanium Legacy is a modern pilot's watch with a titanium case and bracelet, featuring a Kenissi WERK 13 movement with a 70-hour power reserve and three time zones. Overall, owners and reviewers highly regard the Fortis Titanium Legacy for its robust tool watch design and advanced movement technology, despite some concerns about case size and bracelet adjustability.

Studio Underd0g Guacamole (Gen3)

Owners widely praise the Studio Underd0g Guacamole (Gen3) for its fun, cheerful, and unusual design with great colors, and one owner found its actual wrist presence perfect. Some owners, however, find the dial printing tacky and the overall design looking cheap, while others feel it is a bit pricey for what is offered. The pushers lack crispness, and the crystal is very reflective and domed too much at the edges. One owner expresses concern that it uses a Seagull ST91-B movement, known for a high failure rate. On balance, owners are split on the value proposition of the Studio Underd0g Guacamole (Gen3) at its current price point, with some appreciating its unique aesthetic and others finding the design and movement choices underwhelming.
