Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Islander Black DLC Aviator Automatic Watch with Leather Strap and an Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal #ISL-46 for its anti-reflective sapphire crystal, legible dial, and strong C3 lume. The Seiko NH35 movement, featuring hacking and hand-winding, is also a commonly cited positive, contributing to its value at a $199 sale price. Some owners appreciate the clean, unbranded dial, aligning with traditional Flieger design. However, one owner notes the watch runs fast, requiring frequent time adjustments, and another commenter feels the date complication detracts from the Flieger aesthetic. Overall, owners rate the Islander Black DLC Aviator Automatic Watch with Leather Strap and an Anti-Reflective Sapphire Crystal #ISL-46 highly for its value and classic Flieger design elements.
The Zelos GT is lauded for its value and bold design, with owners highlighting the cool power reserve meter and superb 3-point micro-adjust bracelet. Some owners find the case and lugs could hug the wrist better, and the bracelet is noted as being quite long, requiring significant link removal for a 7.1-inch wrist. The dark green dial, while inspired by Lamborghini, is described as appearing mostly black. Overall, owners rate the Zelos GT highly for its value and the quality of its bracelet at the price point.
