What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lum-Tec Eclipse

Owners widely praise the Lum-Tec Eclipse for its comfortable, slim profile and thin wearability, with specific commendations for its beautiful dial, good readability, and bracelet design. The knurling on the crown is also noted as a positive feature. Some owners express concern over the 42mm case size and find the dial's font and indices unappealing, though others appreciate the deep-dish slant. One owner notes a slight gap where the lugs meet the bracelet. The Lum-Tec Eclipse e3 variant features a Miyota 9039 movement, a solid bracelet, a sunburst dial, and exceptionally bright lume. Overall, owners rate the Lum-Tec Eclipse highly for its slim design and attractive dial at its price point.

Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch

Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch owners praise its tritium tubes, Mil-spec designation, and scratch-resistant case finish, with some finding the 36mm size practical for field use. However, some owners criticize its perceived overpriced nature, thick case, and squared-off lugs, while others point to the composite case material, 30m water resistance, and unbranded movement as drawbacks. On balance, owners are divided on the Marathon GPQ-D (Officer's Quartz with Date) Field Watch, with opinions split on its value and design features.
