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 Superfast Automatic - Silver Panda

The Helgray Superfast Automatic - Silver Panda is praised for its attractive, timeless panda aesthetic and value, featuring a reliable Seiko VK64 mecaquartz movement and sapphire crystal. However, its wearability is described as bulky and boxy, the lume is disappointing, lasting only 5-10 minutes, and the chronograph pusher action is slightly stiff. On balance, owners appreciate the Helgray Superfast Automatic - Silver Panda for its appealing panda dial and value proposition.
