What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

RZE Resolute Type A

The RZE Resolute Type A is praised for its build quality, finishing, and highly legible dial with luminous elements, all at a $499 price point. Its sandblasted titanium case features an UltraHex coating, and it measures 39.5mm by 11.5mm with 100 meters of water resistance. A reviewer notes the Miyota 82S0 movement's crown operation feels grainy. On balance, reviewers highlight the RZE Resolute Type A as a well-built and legible pilot's watch offering good value.

Zelos Aurora Field

The Zelos Aurora Field is praised for its unique and gorgeous dial, with the hammered teal bronze version and its great lume, particularly on the minute track, being singled out. Owners find the rubber strap comfortable and flexible with good hardware, and the watch is highlighted as feature-packed for its price point, including 200m water resistance, Grade 2 titanium, and 30,000 A/m anti-magnetism, with the new clasp noted as the best to date. However, some owners criticize sharp bracelet edges, an odd case shape with lugs that cause it to wear high, and dial text that appears cheap and plasticky, with one commenter finding the straight lugs look a bit off. Overall, owners rate the Zelos Aurora Field highly for its value and unique dial, despite some concerns about case and bracelet finishing.
