What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sternglas Merion

The value proposition of the Sternglas Merion is consistently praised by reviewers. Reviewers disagree on whether the Sternglas Merion is the best dive watch under €500.

Phoibos Voyager

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Voyager for its attractive MOP dial and good overall finishing, along with its fun octopus logo. However, reviewers and owners alike note that the red lettering on the red date wheel is illegible, and one owner reports the 13.5mm thick case can be prone to accidental knocks. On balance, owners rate the Phoibos Voyager highly for its attractive dial and finishing at the price point.
