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 XL Automatik

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik as an amazing and best affordable automatic Bauhaus watch for its price. However, some owners find the 42mm case size too large, with one describing it as resembling a "flying saucer" on a 7.25-inch wrist, and another noting its unsuitability for a predominantly white dial. The Miyota movement is described as just okay. Overall, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik highly for its value proposition as an affordable Bauhaus automatic.

Venezianico Nereide Malachite

Owners widely praise the Venezianico Nereide Malachite for its attractive design and refined finishing, with some finding it comparable to higher-end brands. However, one owner reported a bezel alignment issue where it was half a click off to the left, leading to a return. On balance, owners appreciate the Nereide Malachite for its build quality and aesthetic appeal, finding the brand's negative reputation unwarranted.
