What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Nodus Obscura II

The Nodus Obscura II is widely praised for its novel "Exposure Gauge Complication" bezel, designed for film photographers using the Sunny 16 rule, and its iridescent dial that resembles mother of pearl. Owners also highlight the top-notch bracelet with micro-adjustment and the accessible $650 price point. Some find the bezel concept a bit gimmicky. The watch features a 38mm steel case, a TMI NH38 movement, 100m water resistance, and a box sapphire crystal. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Nodus Obscura II highly for its creative complication and iridescent dial at an accessible price.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
