Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners widely praise the Makydo Contour's asymmetrical case shape and elegant design, finding it suitable for dressier occasions. Some owners note the leather strap is more appropriate for formal wear. The price of €587.39 is a point of contention, with several commenters questioning its value. Overall, owners appreciate the Makydo Contour's distinctive design, though its price is a recurring concern.
The Makydo Contour is praised for its comfortable fit due to its slim case and compact lug-to-lug. The Miyota 9015/9039 automatic movement is considered reliable for the price point. The 30-meter water resistance is a noted limitation.
The Tissot PRX UFO Robot Grendizer is noted for its unique sunburst blue dial featuring an embossed Grendizer bust, which, along with the hands and indices, offers yellow-green and blue-green luminescence respectively, while the seconds hand is shaped like Grendizer's weapon. This special edition utilizes the Powermatic 80 movement, providing an 80-hour power reserve, and comes in distinctive Spazer spaceship packaging. Reviewers suggest the €120 price premium for these thematic elements and packaging may only appeal to fans of the manga. Overall, reviewers consider the Tissot PRX UFO Robot Grendizer a clever, niche special edition that avoids excessive gimmickry, particularly appealing to manga enthusiasts.
