Sternglas Naos Pro GMT AutomatikvsFears Onyx (collective Horology)

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.

Owners widely praise the Fears Onyx (collective Horology) for its exquisite glossy black onyx dial, which displays microscopic striations under magnification. Reviewers note its thin case, under 10.5mm, and a balanced sporty-dressy aesthetic. Water resistance is rated at 150m by one source and 100m by another, and the bracelet features on-the-fly micro-adjustment. Some owners find the 39.5mm diameter slightly large for the style, and one source suggests it doesn't represent top value, though it remains competitive. Overall, owners rate the Fears Onyx highly for its unique stone dial and wearability.
