Retter Watches MistralvsYema Granvelle CMM.29

Retter Watches Mistral is lauded for its elegant, ultra-thin 6.8mm case and refined, retro 38mm profile with soldered lugs, featuring a unique multi-level dial with textural depth and a well-decorated manual-wind ETA 7001 movement. Some reviewers note that the minute hand could be longer to reach the minute track and that legibility may be an issue due to hand similarity. On balance, reviewers praise the Retter Watches Mistral for its sophisticated design and value at its preorder price, highlighting the attractive manual-wind movement.

Owners widely praise the Yema Granvelle CMM.29's dial, noting its guilloché pattern and carved indices that catch the light. One owner reports an impressive nearly 80-hour power reserve and a steady accuracy of +2 seconds per day. Some owners flag quality control issues, though customer service is reported to eventually resolve them, and one owner finds the movement a "feast for the eyes." Overall, owners rate the Yema Granvelle CMM.29 highly for its visually appealing dial and strong power reserve, despite some concerns about quality control.
