What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Monta Skyquest

Owners widely praise the Monta Skyquest's build quality and bracelet finishing, with one owner noting its superior articulation and another calling it outstanding for the price. Reviewers highlight its wearability, sporty yet dressy aesthetic, bold aluminum bezel, and bright lume, powered by a Sellita SW330 movement. Some owners find the bezel numeral style polarizing, the GMT hand kinked, and the bezel rotation stiff with silent clicks. The clasp is described as a tight fit and long by some, and the watch wears larger than expected, though its low weight and slim side profile are noted positives. Accuracy for the SW330 movement is considered good by some, with 300m WR and a slim case profile also cited. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Monta Skyquest highly for its exceptional bracelet finishing and versatile design at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Monta Skyquest GMT features an excellent bracelet, praised by multiple reviewers for its high quality and smooth action. A notable trade-off is the lume brightness, which could be improved. Reviewers disagree on whether the watch's price justifies its cost, with some considering it one of the most expensive GMTs under $3,000 and others viewing it as a strong contender in the under $3000 GMT market.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
