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.

Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph

The Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph is praised for its elegant, art deco-inspired multi-layered dial and comfortable leather strap. Owners note its 38mm diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 11.5mm thickness, along with a sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance. Criticisms include the use of different fonts for sub-dial and perimeter markers, and the absence of a traditional running second hand. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph for its distinctive dial design and comfortable wearability.
