What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII

The Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII is praised for its refined case, impressive fit and finish, and compact 38mm size, which offers a premium feel with a sharp, legible dial and well-executed applied markers. Reviewers note the sweet winding action and the vintage-inspired brown sunburst dial with dauphine hands and lollipop register pointers. The watch is powered by a manual-wind Sellita SW510Mb movement with a 63-hour power reserve. Accuracy figures vary, with one reviewer reporting +7 seconds per day and another stating a tolerance of +/-15 seconds per day. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII for its refined vintage-inspired design and compact dimensions at its price point.

From video reviewers

The 38mm case size is a key strength for the Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII. Reviewers noted the excellent quality-price ratio for a Swiss-made chronograph.

RZE Urbanist

The RZE Urbanist is widely praised as a fantastic, lightweight, "grab and go" everyday watch. Owners highlight its durable titanium case with scratch-resistant coatings and sapphire crystal. The solar movement is noted for keeping good time and is guaranteed for life. Production models feature a push-in crown, a change from earlier screw-down versions. Overall, owners rate the RZE Urbanist highly for its durable, lightweight titanium construction and reliable solar movement.

From video reviewers
