What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Mark Time Watches M 6

The Mark Time Watches M 6 features a 39mm case with a deep black dial that gives the hands a floating appearance, and the second hand extends to the edge of the dial. Owners appreciate the absence of a ghost date position, a minimalist logo, and actual bezel screws. However, some find telling time to the nearest minute or two is challenging. Overall, owners value the M 6 for its thoughtful design elements like the full-length second hand and functional bezel screws.

Spinnaker Fleuss

Owners widely praise the Spinnaker Fleuss for its retro design, textured dial, and good value, with many noting it looks better in person than in photos. The watch is appreciated for its robust construction and finishing, especially when found at a discount. Some owners report good timekeeping and a decent power reserve. However, the Spinnaker Fleuss GMT is criticized by some for its large case size, which can affect proportions and numeral legibility. One owner experienced a broken crown after a fall, while another noted concerns about the acrylic bezel's durability. The lume is described as adequate but not exceptional. Overall, owners rate the Spinnaker Fleuss highly for its retro aesthetic and value proposition, particularly when purchased on sale.

From video reviewers

The bezel action is considered notably stiff by multiple reviewers. The watch's 43mm case diameter is identified as potentially too large for smaller wrists.
