What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lorier Olympia SII

Owners widely praise the Lorier Olympia SII for its excellent value and vintage aesthetic, highlighting the robust Seiko NE88 movement and crisp chronograph pushers. The 39mm case is noted for wearing well, with its layered design effectively managing the 13.8mm thickness. Some owners prefer the hesalite crystal for its aesthetic, while others would like a sapphire option. The bracelet is described as functional but can be a hair nipper. Overall, owners rate the Lorier Olympia SII highly for its execution of a vintage chronograph at an accessible price point.

Grand Seiko SBGH263

The Grand Seiko SBGH263 is praised for its excellent finishing for the price, with reviewers comparing it to Jaeger-LeCoultre. Owners and reviewers highlight the stunning 'Shironeri' dial and gold hands/numerals, and the 39.5mm case size is considered a perfect fit, referencing vintage Grand Seiko models. The watch features a 55-hour power reserve from its 36,000 BPH movement, though one reviewer felt the date aperture was unnecessary. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Grand Seiko SBGH263 highly for its exceptional dial and finishing at its price point.
