What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

KUOE ROYAL SMITH 90-012

Owners widely praise the KUOE ROYAL SMITH 90-012 for its elegant 37mm size and symmetrical bicompax layout, with the silver dial described as "insane" and highly readable. The chronograph pushers are noted for their crisp action and satisfying reset. However, reviewers flag the 14.3mm thickness as chunky for the case size, and one owner finds the date window difficult to read due to its small size and deep setting. The TMI NE86A movement offers a 45-hour power reserve and accuracy between +25 and -15 seconds per day. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the KUOE ROYAL SMITH 90-012 highly for its retro charm and attractive dial options at its price point.

Studio Underd0g Champagne & Caviar

The Studio Underd0g Champagne & Caviar is a polarizing monopusher chronograph with a unique dial design inspired by luxury food and drink, featuring a textured champagne top dial and a caviar-themed subdial. Owners and reviewers are split on its aesthetic, with some calling the design "so fucking bad" and "gross," while others appreciate its "awesome" concept. It is powered by a manual-wind Sellita SW510M Elaboré movement with a 63-hour power reserve and is rated at ±5 seconds per day, housed in a 38.5mm stainless steel case and priced at $2,200. On balance, the Studio Underd0g Champagne & Caviar is a unique but divisive chronograph, with its polarizing design being the primary point of contention among enthusiasts and reviewers.

From video reviewers

The Studio Underd0g Standard's Sellita SW210-1 automatic movement offers a 42-hour power reserve. The watch's build quality is a notable weakness, with reviewers mentioning that it's not as well-polished as its competitors. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer comparing it to the Gibson Les Paul and another noting its price is more accessible than the standard Brunswick.
