Lilienthal Berlin HuxleyvsOrient Symphony III

Owners widely appreciate the blue and orange sunburst dial and consider the finishing and blue leather strap good value, especially during sales. Some owners typically avoid quartz movements but made an exception for the Lilienthal Berlin Huxley's dial. Overall, owners rate the Lilienthal Berlin Huxley highly for its attractive dial and good finishing at the price point.

Owners widely praise the Orient Symphony III for its exceptional value, noting its sub-$150 price tag belies a polished case and classic design with modern overtones that make it appear more expensive. The dial is described as simple, elegant, and effective, and the time-setting action is smooth. However, the included bracelet is flagged as flimsy and squeaky, prompting recommendations for aftermarket straps. Accuracy is a point of concern for some, with one owner reporting sporadic timekeeping ranging from +10 seconds per day to as much as 83 seconds over 48 hours. Overall, owners rate the Orient Symphony III highly for its impressive value and elegant design, despite the noted bracelet and accuracy issues.
