What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Spinnaker Hass Automatic

The Spinnaker Hass Automatic is a 43mm watch featuring an NH35 movement and sapphire crystal, with owners highlighting its beautiful dial. Some find Spinnaker watches, including this model, to be on the thicker side, with one owner describing the Hass X MCS Blue Fade variant as comically large and chunky. The Spinnaker Hass Automatic was offered at $445 USD as part of a special collection with customized elements, and a limited edition of 200 pieces was also available for $195 shipped. On balance, owners and reviewers note the attractive dial as a key positive, though some express reservations about the watch's thickness.

From video reviewers

The dial's recovered marine plastic construction with textured finish provides distinctive material differentiation at the entry-level dive watch price point, and the sapphire crystal with anti-reflective coating ensures strong on-wrist legibility. The 300m water resistance and automatic movement deliver capable specifications, though bracelet quality and fit remain underspecified across reviews.

Timefactors PRS-36

Owners widely praise the Timefactors PRS-36 for its classy vintage styling, comfortable thin cushion case, and brushed aluminum dial. The Peseux 7040 hand-winding movement and 37mm case size are noted, with one owner finding it wears larger than expected. The included strap and buckle are frequently cited as undesirable, with owners opting for replacements. Overall, owners rate the Timefactors PRS-36 highly for its vintage aesthetics and comfortable wearability at its price point.
