What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lilienthal Berlin Neolux Skeleton – Black Lime

Owners widely praise Lilienthal Berlin for its award-winning minimalist design and value, particularly when purchased at a discount, with one owner noting the Meteorite IV model looks as good as a much more expensive watch. Some owners appreciate the blue and orange sunburst dial and good finishing, while others find the dial and hands machine-stamped without polished edges and the leather quality basic. Owners report sharp case edges causing skin irritation and difficult-to-remove strap pins, with one finding it unwearable due to discomfort, though another enjoyed the clean design and good lume. The brand's minimalist aesthetic is praised, but some models lack lume, and some owners have experienced significant shipping delays and unresponsive customer support, with some describing the company as potentially fraudulent. Overall, owners rate Lilienthal Berlin highly for its Bauhaus-inspired design and perceived value, though concerns about quality and customer service are noted.

Orient AK00 Version 3 Classic Watch

The Orient AK00 Version 3 Classic Watch is widely praised as an affordable, classic dress watch with a well-balanced design and a sun and moon dial. Owners appreciate its sapphire crystal, exhibition caseback, and the F6B24 automatic movement, which offers hand-winding, hacking, and day, date, and 24-hour complications. Some owners find the 42.5mm case size and 14mm thickness to be large, and note that the moonphase is a day/night complication. However, others find it surprisingly not heavy and like its layout and finish, considering Orient the best value brand. Overall, owners rate the Orient AK00 Version 3 Classic Watch highly for its attractive sun and moon dial and excellent value.
