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.

Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER

Owners widely praise the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER for its attractive vintage-inspired design and compact 39mm size, with one owner finding the red dial unique and gorgeous. Reviewers and owners note the solar-powered quartz movement, with one owner considering $700 expensive for this specification and another wishing for a thinner case. The SPEEDTIMER is described as a sturdy and reliable everyday watch, though one owner questioned its resale value. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Seiko Prospex SPEEDTIMER for its stylish, compact design and solar functionality, despite some finding the price point and case thickness slightly high.
