Lorier Hyperion SIIvsSpinnaker Hass Automatic

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 Spinnaker Hass Automatic is a 43mm watch featuring an NH35 movement and sapphire crystal, with owners highlighting its beautiful dial. Some find Spinnaker watches, including this model, to be on the thicker side, with one owner describing the Hass X MCS Blue Fade variant as comically large and chunky. The Spinnaker Hass Automatic was offered at $445 USD as part of a special collection with customized elements, and a limited edition of 200 pieces was also available for $195 shipped. On balance, owners and reviewers note the attractive dial as a key positive, though some express reservations about the watch's thickness.
