Reviews

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

Möels & Co Rectangular

Owners widely praise the Möels & Co Möels + Co Rectangular Watch for its gorgeous, unique aesthetic and comfortable wearability, with one owner noting a refined bracelet and clasp. Reviewers highlight its retro charm with a mid-century modern rectangular case and offset dial. However, legibility is a concern for some owners, who find the dial markers difficult to read and gold hands on a black dial challenging at certain angles. One reviewer also noted soft case finishing with mushy transitions. The Möels & Co Möels + Co Rectangular Watch is powered by a Sellita SW200-1 automatic movement and offers 100m water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Möels & Co Möels + Co Rectangular Watch for its distinctive design and comfortable wear, despite some legibility and finishing critiques.

Trafford Watch Co Crossroads

Owners widely praise the Trafford Watch Co Crossroads for its unique, unconventional case shape and dial execution, with many highlighting the thoughtful packaging and excellent customer service. Reviewers and owners alike commend its design, with some noting a 70s or scholarly vibe, and others seeing subtle resemblances to luxury brands. The Miyota 9039 movement is reported to keep excellent time, with one owner noting accuracy within +/- 5 seconds per day. The 38mm case with a 46mm lug-to-lug is described as wearing comfortably, though its 50m water resistance is considered a limitation for swimming. One owner noted a minor, light-dependent imperfection on the case. Overall, owners rate the Trafford Watch Co Crossroads highly for its distinctive design and the brand's responsive customer service.

From video reviewers

The watch features a unique dial that shifts between bright and moody tones depending on lighting. One weakness is the lack of lume brightness, as the syringe hands are filled with BGW9 Swiss Super-LumiNova but don't seem effective in low-light conditions. Reviewers disagree on the watch's seriousness, with one reviewer saying it's not meant for formal occasions, while others don't mention this aspect.
