What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT for its 36mm size and 11.2mm thinness, vintage-inspired design, and crisp finishing. The champagne sunburst dial and integrated bracelet are frequently highlighted as attractive elements. Some owners note the bezel font as a detractor, and a reviewer points out the lume is insignificant. The watch uses a caller GMT movement, and one owner finds the small crown impractical to manipulate. Accuracy is reported as within +/- 4 seconds per day, and it features 20 ATM water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT for its refined design and compact dimensions, though some question its value proposition for an emerging brand.

From video reviewers

The watch's Swiss-made quality and accuracy of +/- 4 seconds per day are highlighted. Concerns regarding sizing and price are noted.

Farer ROCHÉ II

The Farer ROCHÉ II is widely praised for its excellent value, thoughtful case finishing with contrasting textures, and its wearable 39mm size. Owners and reviewers highlight the quality of the dial and case, with one owner noting the five-year movement warranty. However, one owner points out the absence of lume on their version's indices, and a reviewer observed a roughness on the micro pique dial's edges in direct light. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Farer ROCHÉ II highly for its exceptional value and well-executed design at its price point.
