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 LA GRANDE CLASSIQUE DE LONGINES

Owners widely praise the La Grande Classique de Longines for its extreme thinness, elegance, and timeless simplicity, with many finding it comfortable and lightweight due to its slim, flat design. The quartz version is recommended for its accuracy and convenience, while both quartz and automatic models are noted for their slim profiles and elegant aesthetics, with the bracelet being comfortable. Some owners are split on the styling, with Roman numerals appealing to some but not all, and one owner finds the Tonneau collection model a lovely dress watch despite preferring round faces. Owners suggest pre-owned options for better value, with prices ranging from $300-$1000 USD depending on the model and condition. One owner reports frequent battery replacements on the quartz model, with batteries lasting only months. Overall, owners rate the La Grande Classique de Longines highly for its slim, elegant design and value, particularly on the pre-owned market.
