What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Longines PrimaLuna Moonphase

The Longines PrimaLuna Moonphase features a fluid case design and a 72-hour power reserve from its automatic movement. Owners note its accuracy averages 1.3 seconds lost per day across six positions, and 3 to 4 seconds on the wrist, performing within COSC standards. Previously, moon phase models utilized quartz movements, a detail that may not appeal to mechanical watch enthusiasts. Overall, owners rate the Longines PrimaLuna Moonphase highly for its updated automatic movement and reliable timekeeping.

Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto

The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto is praised for its high-accuracy quartz movement, with owners noting its comfort and reliable performance. Reviewers highlight its functional tool-watch appeal, featuring a sandblasted steel case, tritium tubes for constant low-light visibility, and 100-meter water resistance. One owner finds the 41mm case runs a bit small. The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto utilizes an ETA F06.412 quartz movement with a claimed accuracy of +/- 10 seconds per year and includes a GMT bidirectional bezel. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto highly for its comfortable wear and dependable, high-accuracy quartz movement.
