One reviewer desired a slightly larger screw-down crown. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Marus 2.0 highly for its robust build and standout dial at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Seiko NH35 automatic movement is a shared strength. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.

Seiko Presage Cocktail Time

Owners widely praise the Seiko Presage Cocktail Time for its visually stunning dials and excellent value, with the 4Rxx movement keeping good time, ranging from -5/+5 seconds per day. The watch is appreciated for its size and design, though some owners note the absence of a sapphire crystal and occasionally question the price, feeling it competes with significantly more expensive timepieces. One reviewer specifically praised the Mockingbird dial, indices, hands, and crown, but found the case design uninspired. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Seiko Presage Cocktail Time highly for its striking dial aesthetics and strong value proposition.

From video reviewers

The dial finishing is exceptional for its price point. Quality control issues are a recurring problem with Seiko.
