Reviews

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

Kurono Tokyo 2024 Anniversary Reiwa

Owners widely praise the Kurono Tokyo 2024 Anniversary Reiwa for its stunning, dynamic blue/green dial that shifts in the light and its classic 37mm sizing, which contributes to a comfortable vintage feel. The brand's stringent quality control, with only about 5% of dials meeting standards, is also noted. Some owners hesitated due to the 37mm size, finding it small if accustomed to larger watches, and a few found the dial color less appealing than previous iterations. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Kurono Tokyo 2024 Anniversary Reiwa highly for its visually captivating dial and wearability at the 37mm size.

Sartory Billard SB04

Owners widely praise the Sartory Billard SB04 for its stunning, custom dials with remarkable texture and light play, with many calling it a masterpiece. The watch is noted for its modern wearing experience and comfortable, light feel, particularly when constructed from titanium. Some owners find the steel casebacks slightly sharp due to deep laser cutting, and one owner notes the hands can be difficult to see depending on the viewing angle. The Sartory Billard SB04 is powered by the La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement. Overall, owners rate the Sartory Billard SB04 highly for its exceptional dial artistry and perceived value.

From video reviewers

The dial's textured finish and color shift are highlighted as a key strength. The bracelet's perceived lack of refinement and end-link fit are noted as a drawback. Reviewers disagree on the case size, with mentions of 35.9mm and 40mm.
