What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Makydo Mystic Blue

Owners widely praise the Makydo Mystic Blue for its aesthetic appeal, impeccable finishing on the case and bracelet, and its sunburst dial. The 38mm size is noted to wear comfortably, closer to 39mm. Some owners report the clasp takes time to get used to for smooth operation.

Seiko Prospex LX line

Owners widely report the Seiko Prospex LX line's finishing is a step up from other models, with a case that sits well on the wrist, and some praise the green sunburst dial with blue anti-reflective sapphire crystal as phenomenal. However, owners note the high MSRP limited sales, with some desiring smaller cases and a reduced price, and others experienced quality control issues such as detached second hands and peeling DLC coating, leading to concerns about fragility. On balance, owners feel the Seiko Prospex LX line was discontinued due to pricing that alienated its target market, despite its attractive dial.
