What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.

Longines FLAGSHIP HERITAGE MOONPHASE

The Longines Flagship Heritage Moonphase is widely praised for its elegant aesthetic, balanced midnight blue dial with dauphine hands and wedge indices, and the L899.5 movement's 72-hour power reserve. Owners appreciate its value, classy integrated moonphase complication with a night blue background and shiny silver stars, and comfortable 38.5mm case size with good finishing, fitting well on smaller wrists. However, reviewers and owners note its minimal 30-meter water resistance, a 3 o'clock crown that appears undersized, and a thickness of 12.4mm, which some find hinders its dress watch suitability and ability to slip under a cuff, though others find it wearable. Some also consider the design overly traditional and the rehaut depth excessive. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Longines Flagship Heritage Moonphase highly for its elegant design and value proposition at its price point.
