What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sternglas Marus

The Sternglas Marus is widely praised for its well-built, heavy feel and excellent bezel action, considered the best in its price range. Despite its 42mm diameter and 52mm lug-to-lug, owners report it fits surprisingly well on slim wrists. A reviewer notes the short seconds hand as a drawback, but highlights the watch as a fun, affordable starting point for a collection, featuring a vibrant Pepsi bezel and an anthracite dial that shifts in appearance, powered by a Miyota 8215 movement for €399. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Marus highly for its robust build and superior bezel at its price point.

Sternglas Naos XL Automatik

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik as an amazing and best affordable automatic Bauhaus watch for its price. However, some owners find the 42mm case size too large, with one describing it as resembling a "flying saucer" on a 7.25-inch wrist, and another noting its unsuitability for a predominantly white dial. The Miyota movement is described as just okay. Overall, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik highly for its value proposition as an affordable Bauhaus automatic.
