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 HYDROCONQUEST

Owners widely praise the Longines HydroConquest's dial and finishing, with one owner finding it superior to a Rolex Submariner. The movement is noted as well-regulated, losing about 2 seconds per day. The watch is considered a versatile everyday or business-casual option, offering good value. However, owners criticize the bracelet for lacking tool-less micro-adjustment and describe winding the crown as a nuisance. Some in the line report tiny GMT markers that are difficult to read and the absence of a quick date adjust feature. Overall, owners rate the Longines HydroConquest highly for its finishing and value.
