What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Spinnaker Tesei Mille Metri GMT

The Spinnaker Fleuss Midnight Black features a reliable and accurate Japanese TMI NH35 Automatic Movement with 3 Hands and Date. A potential drawback is the watch's relatively low 15 ATM water-resistance rating compared to other watches in its class. Reviewers disagree on the watch's suitability for larger wrists, with one reviewer noting a 43mm diameter and 51mm lug-to-lug fit, while the other mentions a 51mm lug-to-lug measurement.

Seiko DressKX

The Seiko 5 Sports SKX series is widely praised as a gateway mechanical watch offering exceptional value and iconic status, with owners appreciating its ruggedness, tool-like authenticity, and moddability. Many owners report the 4R36/NH36 movement achieves accuracy of +/-5 to 10 seconds per day, far exceeding its stated specifications, and the stock Jubilee bracelet is noted as surprisingly comfortable. Some owners find the Seiko 5 Sports SKX series bulky and less aesthetically pleasing than newer models, with others noting its specifications lag behind contemporary watches. The Seiko 5 Sports SKX series is considered a decent watch, especially when found under £200, but it's not the serious tool watch the original SKX was, lacking a screw-down crown, bezel pip, and ISO rating. Overall, owners rate the Seiko 5 Sports SKX series highly for its iconic dive watch lineage and excellent value at the price point.

From video reviewers

The clean dial and versatile dressy look are praised. The overall thickness and handset are points of contention.
