Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Lorier Zephyr for its stunning guilloche-style dial, refined and perfectly sized unique case shape, and comfortable wearability. The Miyota 9 series movement is noted by owners as being a little noisy, with a rotor whirring audible on quick hand movements. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Zephyr highly for its distinctive dial and case design at the price.
The watch's vintage aesthetic and value for money are praised. The bracelet's refinement and perceived rattle are noted as a drawback.
Owners widely praise the Melbourne Watch Company Fitzroy's layered dial with applied indices and the bracelet's mixed finishes, finding it offers stunning quality for the price. Some owners note the bezel is not ceramic, and one owner found the watch not as good as expected from a micro-brand. A reviewer points out issues with bezel alignment, the chronograph second hand not resetting perfectly to 12, and a crooked 6 o'clock index on the Chronograph variant. Overall, owners rate the Melbourne Watch Company Fitzroy highly for its attractive dial and bracelet finishing at the price point, despite some noted alignment quirks.
