Reviews

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

Lorier Hyperion SII Skyward

Owners widely praise the Lorier Hyperion SII Skyward for its comfortable, thin wearability and accurate timekeeping, with one owner noting it holds up well to daily wear over two years. The bi-directional GMT bezel is considered decent for its price point, and the bracelet is described as well-made and finished. Some owners find the hesalite crystal polarizing, and one desires a different case design. Overall, owners rate the Lorier Hyperion SII Skyward highly for its comfortable wearability and accurate timekeeping at its price point.

Wolbrook Skindiver WT Automatic

The Wolbrook Skindiver WT Automatic is praised for its striking two-tone color, bold green dial, and vintage aesthetic without feeling faked, with owners appreciating its quality and customer service for the price. Reviewers and owners note its comfortable wearability and a nice beads of rice bracelet with plenty of micro-adjust and a cool clasp, alongside a box sapphire crystal with underside anti-reflective coating. Some find the finishing unremarkable and are put off by the push-pull crown, while one owner reported a dud mecaquartz before receiving a good quality second unit. The Miyota 8315 movement is adjusted to ±15 seconds per day in France, and the steel bracelet's finish did not match the watch as well as the rubber straps for one reviewer. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Automatic well for its value and retro aesthetic, despite some reservations about finishing and specific component execution.
