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 STGF359

Owners widely praise the Grand Seiko STGF359 for its elegant pairing with an engagement ring. Some owners find the 29mm case size too small for a man's wrist, while others suggest it can be worn by men with smaller wrists, recommending an in-person try-on. One owner notes potential date wheel misalignment requiring servicing. The bracelet has a maximum perimeter of 185mm, with extra links available. On balance, owners value the Grand Seiko STGF359 for its elegant aesthetic, though its small size is a point of consideration.

From video reviewers

The Grand Seiko STGF359 features a 9F quartz movement with exceptional accuracy, deviating by only +/−10 seconds per year. A drawback of the watch is its 40mm case size, which may be a concern for those with smaller wrists. Reviewers disagree on the type of movement, with one praising the 9F quartz and the other highlighting the spring drive movement.
