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 Großdatum

The Sternglas Naos Großdatum is praised for its Bauhaus aesthetic and value, with one owner finding it an affordable alternative to other designs. However, some owners report it feels underwhelming and cheap, with a printed-on face, small font, and toy-like hands, and find the strap to be of poor quality. The watch features a 38mm stainless steel case, an Alabaster dial with beige LumiNova, and a Seiko TMI VJ76 quartz movement rated for -20/+20 seconds per month. On balance, owners and reviewers are divided, with the primary point of contention being the perceived quality and aesthetic execution of the Sternglas Naos Großdatum.

CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch

The CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is widely praised for its faithful recreation of vintage details, including its dial layout with markers touching the chapter ring and pointed crown guards. Owners and reviewers note its reasonable size and the original minute hand design. However, the lume is a point of contention: some find the "faux patina" tint too gold and glossy, while others specifically criticize the mismatched lume color between hands and hour markers, with the hour marker lume described as overly shiny and convex. On balance, the CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is highly regarded for its authentic vintage aesthetic and wearability, despite mixed opinions on the lume application.

From video reviewers

The watch's accurate movement is a notable strength. A potential weakness is its relatively high price point. Reviewers disagree on the watch's water-resistance, with one reviewer suggesting it could be improved and the other not mentioning any issues with water-resistance.
