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.

Spinnaker Hull

The Spinnaker Hull is widely praised by owners for its textured or deep sandwich dials, bold cushion case design, and vintage charm, with one owner finding its jubilee bracelet superior to Seiko's. The meca-quartz movement is a common feature, and the watch offers 100m water resistance. However, the 24-hour subdial is considered functionally illogical and visually unappealing by one owner, and the mineral crystal is noted as a drawback compared to sapphire. On balance, owners rate the Spinnaker Hull highly for its significant style and value at its budget price point.

From video reviewers

The watch's lume is a strong point. Reviewers noted the absence of a sapphire crystal as a drawback.
