What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lorier Astra

The Lorier Astra is praised for its outstanding details and design language, hitting a "dressy sports watch" vibe with a beautiful sector dial and lume. Owners note its versatile, do-it-all design with classic proportions and refined details like beveled markers, making it suitable for both formal and casual wear. The watch wears slightly larger than its 36mm case suggests, closer to 38mm, with lugs that taper and curve downward to fit well on smaller wrists. However, the bracelet feels a bit light, some screws are difficult to remove, and the Miyota movement can gain around 8 seconds in 12 hours with potentially offset date numerals. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Astra highly for its dressy sports watch aesthetic and refined details at its price point.

Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch

Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch owners praise its tritium tubes, Mil-spec designation, and scratch-resistant case finish, with some finding the 36mm size practical for field use. However, some owners criticize its perceived overpriced nature, thick case, and squared-off lugs, while others point to the composite case material, 30m water resistance, and unbranded movement as drawbacks. On balance, owners are divided on the Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch, with opinions split on its value and design features.
