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 Solar Marine

Lum-Tec Solar Marine owners praise its all-black diver design, excellent lume, and rugged, tank-like build. One owner finds it a perfect fit for a 7-inch wrist and the most frequently worn watch despite its smaller size. However, one owner cautions that the PVD coating will wear and chip within a year, impacting its appearance, and another finds the price high for a solar quartz watch with added lume. On balance, owners rate the Lum-Tec Solar Marine highly for its robust design and excellent lume, despite concerns about PVD durability and value proposition.

Zelos Artemis

The watch's unique modular case construction with a sandblasted titanium outer case and a grey/white Cerakote coating on the center is a notable strength. The FKM rubber strap can be prone to a slight rattle, which may be a minor annoyance for some owners. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value proposition, with one reviewer questioning its value for collectors.
