What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Brew Metric Lite

The Brew Metric Lite is praised for its comfortable wear and attractive dial. Owners note the Miyota 6T27 automatic movement, which offers a 40-hour power reserve and features a signed rotor. It includes applied indices with polished "mountain-top" details and lume pips. Some owners, however, express a desire for a larger case and crown. Overall, owners appreciate the Brew Metric Lite for its comfortable wear and beautiful dial.

Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton

The Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton is noted for its 40mm steel case, sapphire crystal, and 150m water resistance. One owner reports strong performance from the TMI NH70 movement at -3 seconds per day, with very nice lume. On balance, owners find the Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton to be a pretty nice option, particularly for its movement performance and lume.
