What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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. 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 also not meeting the brand's advertised standard. One owner found the 38mm model lighter than expected and preferred it over a Seiko SRP703 and an Apple Watch. Overall, owners and reviewers highlight the Sternglas Naos Automatik's attractive Bauhaus design and good value, despite some criticisms of dial legibility and strap quality.

Phoibos Sea Nymph

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Sea Nymph's unique mother-of-pearl dial and distinctive bezel styling, with some finding it a good fit for smaller wrists. The 36mm case size is considered unisex, though some owners find it too small for larger wrists, while others enjoy it as a summer watch. The consensus is that the Phoibos Sea Nymph is a fun, visually interesting watch, with its polarizing bezel design being a key talking point.

From video reviewers

The watch features a double-domed sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating and a reliable Swiss Ronda 705 quartz movement. Reviewers noted the inclusion of both a leather and a rubber strap.
