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.

Wolbrook Skindiver WT Chrono-Mecaquartz

Owners widely praise the Wolbrook Skindiver WT for its handsome vintage aesthetic, authentic retro vibe, and value for money, often highlighting its legible dial, sapphire crystal, and drilled lugs. The worldtimer bezel and comfortable Beads of Rice bracelet also receive positive mentions. However, some owners report issues with hand color matching, lume quality, bezel wobble, and a high-sitting strap. One owner found the 40mm size wore larger than expected, while another was put off by the push-pull crown. The Miyota 8315 movement is considered less desirable than the 9 series by one owner, and the brand's warranty is not honored if the watch is sold or gifted. Overall, owners rate the Wolbrook Skindiver WT highly for its vintage personality and value, despite some noted build quality concerns.
