Oak & Oscar The Jackson Big EyevsLorier Roosevelt

Oak & Oscar The Jackson Big Eye is praised for its balanced design and fine details, featuring a prominent "Big Eye" 30-minute sub-register for improved readability, reminiscent of vintage chronographs. It is powered by the Eterna EMC 3907M manual wind movement with a 60-hour power reserve, column wheel, and flyback function, housed in a 40mm stainless steel case. This limited edition of 50 pieces was priced at $3,150 and included two Horween leather straps and a wallet. On balance, reviewers highlight the Jackson Big Eye's enthusiast-spec chronograph function and readable subdial as key strengths.

Owners widely praise the Lorier Roosevelt's stunning dial, precise stamping, and clean printing, with its brass case and Horween strap also receiving positive remarks. Some owners find it wears perfectly on a 7" wrist. However, the Miyota 9-series rotor is noted as being "insanely loud," and the original $800 price point is considered steep by some, particularly given the lack of lume and competition. One owner sold it for $525, highlighting it as a great deal on a sold-out item. Overall, owners value the Lorier Roosevelt for its attractive dial and case finishing, though price and rotor noise are points of contention.
