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.

Helgray Skyfighter (Refurbished)

Owners widely praise the Helgray Skyfighter (Refurbished) for its handsome, sporty yet understated design, finding it versatile and good value at its price point. One owner notes the watch is in excellent condition with no marks on the case or crystal, and only minor scuffs on the caseback. However, the brand faces criticism for poor build quality, low-quality movements, and a lack of customer service. On balance, owners find the Helgray Skyfighter (Refurbished) to be a versatile and well-priced quartz chronograph, despite concerns about the brand's overall quality and service.
