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.

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 Tachymeter 2.0

The Sternglas Tachymeter 2.0 is widely praised for its upscale feel and value, featuring a Seiko TMI VK63 meca-quartz movement and a refined case with polished and matte surfaces. Reviewers note improvements over the predecessor, including better lume and the addition of Arabic numerals, while the dial offers more color and distinct sub-dials. One owner points out that the "orange" accent is actually yellow and suggests the tachymeter scale could be more functional. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Tachymeter 2.0 highly for its balanced design and strong value proposition as a quartz chronograph.
