Farer GMTvsOrient Peanuts 75th Anniversary Limited Edition Open Heart

The Farer GMT Automatic is praised for its vibrant, legible sunburst dial and well-proportioned 39.5mm x 10mm case. Reviewers note the ETA 2893-2 movement as a good choice with hacking seconds and a 42-hour power reserve. The bronze crown, intended to develop a patina, is flagged as a potentially unpopular design element that some feel looks unfinished or out of place. Prices range from $1,425 to $2,150 AUD. Overall, reviewers find the Farer GMT Automatic offers good value for a GMT watch in its price segment, with the dial and case proportions being key strengths.

The Orient Peanuts 75th Anniversary Limited Edition Open Heart is widely praised as a beautiful and classy Snoopy-themed watch, with owners appreciating the detailed illustrations of Snoopy and Woodstock on the open-heart dial and small seconds subdial. The throwback script logo and comic typeface are also highlighted as attractive design elements. Some owners find the watch to be a "conversation piece with soul." However, opinions are divided on the open-heart design itself, with some finding it the least attractive among the anniversary models. One owner notes the absence of a sapphire crystal, while another dislikes the "fake blue hands." The watch is considered pricey for an Orient by some, though others appreciate its features. The 40.8mm case size is described as potentially too large for a classic dress watch by one owner, and another plans to replace the strap.
