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 Pro GMT Automatik

Owners report the Sternglas Naos can feel underwhelming with a cheap feel and hands resembling office printer output, with some finding it wears smaller than expected and looks like a toy, though others appreciate its understated design. Reviewers highlight the Argo Automatic variant as a compelling sub-€400 mechanical watch with a colorful dial and practical date wheel, suitable for new collectors, featuring a 38mm case and a Miyota 8215 movement. On balance, the consensus is that the Sternglas Naos offers a mixed ownership experience, with its value proposition and entry-level appeal being its strongest points for some.

From video reviewers

The Sternglas Naos Pro GMT Automatik features a clean Bauhaus design that sets it apart from other GMT watches. A notable weakness is the watch's bezel action, which is not as smooth as some reviewers would have liked. Reviewers disagree on the watch's case size, with one reviewer stating it's slightly larger than the original Naos Automatic, while another reviewer doesn't mention this aspect at all.

Oak & Oscar The Olmsted ExP-01

Owners widely praise Oak & Oscar The Olmsted ExP-01 for its exceptional finishing, comfortable bracelet, and smooth movement. The dial designs are a frequent point of admiration, with specific appreciation for the white, navy, and gray variants, as well as the orange seconds hand. The watch is considered fairly priced at around $1.5k and is noted for its versatility and "soul." On balance, owners rate Oak & Oscar The Olmsted ExP-01 highly for its overall quality, design, and the brand's customer service.
