Geckota Pioneer AutomaticvsSugess MoonPhase Chrono Master S468

Owners widely praise the Geckota Pioneer Automatic for its retro-futuristic design, impressive lume, and unique dial finishing. The red dial variants are particularly favored for their brushed fumee appearance and vintage feel. Accuracy is noted as surprisingly good for an NH35 movement, though one owner reports +/- 20 seconds per day. The watch is considered a bargain by some at $259, while others find the $519 price for the NH35 movement in a 14mm thick case excessive. The 42mm cushion case is noted to wear large due to its lack of a prominent bezel. A minor phantom date position on the crown is reported, and the crystal is very reflective despite an anti-reflective coating. Some find the gold accents look a bit cheap, and one instance of a loose fleck of lume was observed. Overall, owners rate the Geckota Pioneer Automatic highly for its distinctive vintage aesthetic and value, particularly on sale.

Owners widely praise the Sugess MoonPhase Chrono Master S468 for its beautiful dial and true moonphase complication, with one owner noting its value around 200 GBP and another highlighting the amazing movement. The crystal dome also receives praise. However, one owner finds the watch too thick for dressier styles, and the lume is considered mediocre, with the movement lacking hacking. Accuracy varies, with one report of -6 seconds per day. Overall, owners rate the Sugess MoonPhase Chrono Master S468 highly for its dial and true moonphase complication at the price point.
