Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Maen Manhattan 三七 for its satisfying finishing quality and comfortable 37mm wearability, with one owner specifically highlighting the gemstone-like dial that changes appearance in different lighting. Reviewers note its appealing case profile and modest dimensions, though one editorial source flags an average accuracy deviation of +/- 12 seconds per day. The consensus is that owners rate the Maen Manhattan 三七 highly for its dial finishing and comfortable wearability at its price point.
The ultra-thin profile at around 7.1mm is a key characteristic. Reviewers noted the unique dial design as a standout element.
Owners widely praise the Squale Matic S for its superb build and finishing, with some finding its quality comparable to similarly priced Hamilton watches. The watch is noted for its comfortable, ergonomic design and vintage styling. One reviewer flags the fluorescent orange seconds hand as clashing with other accents and the lume on the indices as poor. The Squale Matic S is priced at €1,535 including VAT. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Squale Matic S highly for its build quality and vintage-inspired design at its price point.
