Nezumi Studios CorbeauvsSpinnaker Hass Automatic

The Nezumi Studios Corbeau is widely praised for its retro, mil-spec-inspired design, featuring a playful and vibrant color palette with a creamy dial, mustard numerals, and pumpkin lume. Owners and reviewers highlight its comfortable 40mm wearability, with stubby lugs making it wear smaller than expected, and appreciate the reliable Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement. The chronograph operation is noted for its firm, reassuring clicks and the bezel turns with crisp action, contributing to a solid, well-made feel for its price point. One owner notes the 50m water resistance as a limitation. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Nezumi Studios Corbeau highly for its distinctive vintage aesthetic and excellent value.

The Spinnaker Hass Automatic is a 43mm watch featuring an NH35 movement and sapphire crystal, with owners highlighting its beautiful dial. Some find Spinnaker watches, including this model, to be on the thicker side, with one owner describing the Hass X MCS Blue Fade variant as comically large and chunky. The Spinnaker Hass Automatic was offered at $445 USD as part of a special collection with customized elements, and a limited edition of 200 pieces was also available for $195 shipped. On balance, owners and reviewers note the attractive dial as a key positive, though some express reservations about the watch's thickness.
