Islander Calabro GMT World Time Automatic Watch with Anthracite Dial #ISL-316 offers excellent value at $329 MSRP, featuring a handsome anthracite dial with applied indices, a sapphire crystal, and a quality 120-click unidirectional bezel. Owners highlight the NH34 movement and well-proportioned 40x48x20mm case. Overall, owners rate the Islander Calabro GMT World Time Automatic Watch with Anthracite Dial #ISL-316 highly for its value and feature set at the price point.

NOMOS Glashütte Tangente 38 date

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente for its thinness, comfortable 38mm size, and simple Bauhaus-inspired design, noting its versatility and the quality of its German in-house manual-wind Alpha movement. However, some owners report significant accuracy issues, with one experiencing a gain of 60 seconds per day, and the hard-edged case is noted to be prone to scratches. The watch is also said to wear larger than its case size. On balance, owners rate the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente highly for its elegant design and slim wearability, despite some concerns about accuracy and case durability.
