What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Studio Underd0g The Manhattan

Studio Underd0g The Manhattan is widely praised for its captivating amber fumé sunray dial with a raised sapphire disc, creating unique depth and animation. Owners appreciate the comfortable 38mm cushion case and the tactile winding feel of the manual-wind Sellita SW210-1 movement. Some in the community note the dial's design elements are reminiscent of Fears. The watch offers 10atm water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers rate Studio Underd0g The Manhattan highly for its distinctive dial and comfortable wearability.

Vario Futurist

The Vario Futurist is widely praised for its fun, retro-futuristic design and unique faceted sapphire crystal, offering significant visual intrigue at an affordable price. Owners note its ability to catch the light beautifully. One reviewer flags that the recessed crown can be difficult to operate, and the 39mm case offers more wrist presence than expected.

From video reviewers

The faceted sapphire crystal and distinctive case finishing are praised. The crown placement and sharp case edges are noted as drawbacks. Reviewers disagreed on the watch's overall value proposition.
