What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Oblvlo IM Mechanical

Owners praise the Oblvlo IM Mechanical's cool looks, good lume, and bubble crystal, with one owner finding it wears smaller than expected and is easy to read. However, timekeeping is noted as running fast, approximately +15 to 30 seconds per day. One owner finds the dial design unusual with calendar functions in chronograph-style subdials. On balance, owners appreciate the Oblvlo IM Mechanical's aesthetics and wearability, despite inconsistent timekeeping.

Straton Speciale Automatic or Quartz watch

Owners widely praise the Straton Speciale Automatic or Quartz watch for its great retro feel, TV-shaped case, and fun color combinations. The automatic version is reported to be accurate at approximately +2 seconds per day. The meca-quartz model starts at $320, while the automatic is around $800 with a bracelet, both featuring a 40.8mm lug-to-lug measurement for wearability. Owners consider the quartz version reasonably priced, with its value linked to its mechanical movement. Overall, owners rate the Straton Speciale Automatic or Quartz watch highly for its retro aesthetic and wearability at its price point.
