What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Hamilton Khaki Aviation Khaki Pilot GMT Auto

Owners widely praise the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Khaki Pilot GMT Auto as an underrated, value-packed GMT with good finishing and a sapphire crystal, powered by an ETA 2893-2 movement. Some find the GMT hand obscures legibility, while others consider it legible and appreciate the slim design, though its 44mm size is noted as large by some. One owner describes it as functioning more as an "office GMT" than a traveler's GMT. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Hamilton Khaki Aviation Khaki Pilot GMT Auto highly for its excellent value and GMT functionality.

Lilienthal Berlin Neolux Skeleton – Dark Grey

Owners widely praise Lilienthal Berlin for its award-winning minimalist design and value, particularly when purchased at a discount, with one owner noting the Meteorite IV model looks as good as a much more expensive watch. Some owners appreciate the blue and orange sunburst dial and good finishing, while others find the dial and hands machine-stamped without polished edges and the leather quality basic. Owners report sharp case edges causing skin irritation and difficult-to-remove strap pins, with one finding it unwearable due to discomfort, though another enjoyed the clean design and good lume. The brand's minimalist aesthetic is praised, but some models lack lume, and some owners have experienced significant shipping delays and unresponsive customer support, with some describing the company as potentially fraudulent. Overall, owners rate Lilienthal Berlin highly for its Bauhaus-inspired design and perceived value, though concerns about quality and customer service are noted.
