Owners appreciate the Lilienthal Berlin Octachrono Black Lime Mesh Black Brushed Ndash Lilienthal Berlin North America's cool design, with one owner specifically noting the second-hand sub-dial as a highlight. The mesh bracelet is reported to fit well after sizing. Some owners consider the brand "Assembled in Germany" rather than "Made in Germany." One owner returned the watch due to issues and found company contact unsuccessful. On balance, owners appreciate the Lilienthal Berlin Octachrono Black Lime Mesh Black Brushed Ndash Lilienthal Berlin North America for its design and build quality, despite some hesitation due to limited community discussion and a preference for fully "Made in Germany" designations.

Owners widely praise the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II for its cool retro 70s vibe and car dashboard styling, with its faithful reissue of a small, thin vintage design and tactile pushers noted as strengths, especially considering its price point. The Milanese strap is described as top-notch, and the watch has a substantial, weighty feel that wears smaller than expected, with well-aligned indices and no play in the movement when setting the time. However, some find the meca-quartz ticking not very smooth, the left subdial a "useless" 24h indicator, and the watch overpriced compared to similar models. Owners are split on Yema's quality control, with some reporting no issues and others experiencing or hearing about crooked indices, dial rotation when pushers are depressed or time is set, and a fixed strap loop that limits adjustment. Yema's customer service and communication regarding shipping and strap availability are also criticized by some owners.
