Lorier Hyperion SIIvsMagrette Tourer

Owners widely praise the Lorier Hyperion SII for its vintage aesthetic, glossy black dial, and tasteful text. One owner notes the Miyota 9075 movement and calls it the best GMT under $800. Criticisms include a small GMT hand that is difficult to spot, and one user found the winding action not smooth with significant crown resistance. Overall, owners rate the Lorier Hyperion SII highly for its vintage aesthetic and value.

The Magrette Tourer is praised for its vintage race car aesthetic, solid build, and quality materials at a good value. Reviewers note its perfect legibility with a restrained, gentlemanly yet masculine presence. However, the yellow-tinted display caseback and raw rotor detract from its refined feel, and aligning the inner bezel can be frustratingly difficult due to crown movement when screwed down. The Magrette Tourer uses a Miyota 9015 movement with a 42-hour power reserve and accuracy rated at -10/+30 seconds per day. Overall, reviewers find the Magrette Tourer to be a good value with a vintage charm, despite minor frustrations with the inner bezel alignment.
