Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lilienthal Berlin Chronograph Solar – Edition II

Owners widely praise the Lilienthal Berlin Chronograph Solar – Edition II for its striking meteorite dial and clean, Bauhaus design, with one owner stating it holds up well and is comparable to a $1,500 watch, losing only about four minutes per year. However, some owners report sharp edges causing discomfort and difficulty removing strap pins or bracelet links. Opinions are split on whether it is a fashion watch or suitable for daily wear. One owner finds the chronograph minutes difficult to read for practical use. On balance, owners rate the Lilienthal Berlin Chronograph Solar – Edition II highly for its Bauhaus design and meteorite dial, despite some concerns about sharp edges and legibility.

Roue TPS

Owners widely praise the Roue TPS for its fun, eye-catching, and motorsport-inspired design, with many singling out its resplendent dial colors and retro-funk aesthetic. The Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement is noted for its functional chronograph and AM/PM indicator sub-dial, offering good value under 300 euro. Some owners find the watch wears larger than its 40mm case size, and there are mixed opinions on the domed mineral crystal, with some preferring a sapphire alternative. One owner reported significant condensation issues. Overall, owners rate the Roue TPS highly for its distinctive design and value proposition.
