Reviews

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

Meridiano Watches Lost Astronaut

The Meridiano Watches Lost Astronaut is praised for its bold, colorful, and amazing dial with creative lume application. Owners express strong desire and satisfaction with the aesthetic, with one builder noting appreciation for the case's match with the dial and oversized hands. The watch is described as a custom build using parts from various sources. Overall, owners rate the Meridiano Watches Lost Astronaut highly for its unique and exciting dial design.

Nodus Sector II Sport

Owners widely praise the Nodus Sector II Sport for its comfortable 38mm wearability and unique three-level sector dial with applied indices. Some owners note the white-on-white dial and thin case as highlights. Criticisms include a bulky clasp with sharp edges, a strong blue AR coating, and the non-reversible bronze bezel patina. Accuracy on the Seiko NH38 movement is reported around plus 4 seconds per day by one owner, while another notes the NH38 movement's use in a watch priced over $500. Overall, owners rate the Nodus Sector II Sport highly for its comfortable wearability and distinctive dial design.

From video reviewers

The crisp, clean dial and robust build quality are consistently praised. The lume on-wrist and water resistance are noted as strengths. Reviewers disagree on the value proposition of the Atlantis Edition due to its scarcity.
