What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

RZE Urbanist

The RZE Urbanist is widely praised as a fantastic, lightweight, "grab and go" everyday watch. Owners highlight its durable titanium case with scratch-resistant coatings and sapphire crystal. The solar movement is noted for keeping good time and is guaranteed for life. Production models feature a push-in crown, a change from earlier screw-down versions. Overall, owners rate the RZE Urbanist highly for its durable, lightweight titanium construction and reliable solar movement.

From video reviewers

The RZE Urbanist features a Japanese movement for accurate timekeeping and reliable performance. The watch's lume brightness is a shared weakness, with both reviewers noting it could be improved. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering it a 'great value' for the price, while the other highlights its solar power feature as a significant strength.

Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph

Owners widely report a split on build quality, with some finding the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph's construction unimpressive due to issues like a poorly seated bezel and crooked indices, while others praise its robustness and aesthetic appeal. The unique dial features character hands and glowing eyes serving as subdials and a 24-hour indicator, though the chronograph function is limited to 60 minutes. On balance, the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph elicits divided opinions on its build quality, with its artistic dial design being a notable, albeit polarizing, feature.

From video reviewers

The Spinnaker Googly Black's notable strength is its reported water-resistance of 300 fathoms or 550 metres. A weakness of this watch is its lume brightness, which is somewhat lacking. Reviewers disagree on the watch's ideal size, with one reviewer noting its slimmed-down design and the other mentioning its overall size and 26+ millimeter thickness.
