Reviews

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

Sternglas Naos Automatik

The Sternglas Naos Automatik is praised for its stylish Bauhaus design and solid build quality for its price, featuring a sapphire crystal and elegant case. Owners find the 38mm model lighter than comparable watches and prefer its aesthetic over smartwatches. However, some dial text is too small and slim for easy readability, and the Milanese strap and clasp are considered lower quality, with the quick-change system not meeting advertised standards. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Naos Automatik highly for its Bauhaus design and build quality at its price point.

From video reviewers

The German minimalist and Bauhaus aesthetic is a key strength. Reviewers did not agree on any specific weaknesses. Reviewers disagreed on whether the watch offers superior value compared to the Junghans Max Bill.

Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik

The Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik is praised for its slim, wearable 38mm case with a mix of brushed and polished finishes and a refined Bauhaus dial design. Reviewers note the upgraded Miyota 9015 movement and improved wearability. Some find the optional five-link bracelet too chunky and lacking refinement, with one reviewer noting its accuracy of -10/+30 seconds per day is not for precision enthusiasts. On balance, reviewers rate the Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik highly for its slim case and refined dial design at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Bauhaus design is a strength. The value proposition is a weakness.
