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.2 CHRONOGRAPH

The Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH is praised for its well-made construction and vintage-inspired aesthetic, featuring a 37mm case, a balanced three-register dial, and a quality bracelet and clasp suitable for daily wear. It includes a manual-wind Sellita SW510M movement with a 63-hour power reserve and offers 100 meters of water resistance in a thin package. Reviewers note a unique grooved bi-directional bezel, which is described as an atypical but potentially divisive choice for a chronograph. On balance, reviewers find the Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH to be a well-made watch that successfully blends vintage charm with contemporary design.

From video reviewers

The Lorca Model No.2 Chronograph features a notable guilloché bezel that adds vintage flair to its design. The watch is powered by a Swiss Sellita SW510M manual movement, offering 63 hours of power reserve. A potential drawback is the relatively small 37mm size.

Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER Mechanical Datsun 240Z Limited Edition

The Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER Mechanical Datsun 240Z Limited Edition is praised for its vintage racing concept, applied markers, and dial that shifts from cream to silver with orange accents. Owners appreciate the Datsun logo, dual crowns, and internal countdown bezel, with some noting Seiko's finishing is top-notch. However, some find the dial text cluttered, particularly "automatic 3 days," and consider the price point too high. The watch features a 42mm black-coated stainless steel case, an external tachymeter bezel, and Seiko's 8R48 automatic chronograph movement with a 45-hour power reserve. On balance, owners rate the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER Mechanical Datsun 240Z Limited Edition well for its unique vintage concept and quality finishing, though price remains a point of contention for some.
