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 LEGEND DIVER 42 BLACK LACQUERED

Owners widely praise the Longines LEGEND DIVER 42 BLACK LACQUERED for its retro design and versatility, with some noting it wears smaller than its dimensions suggest and its crystal height contributes to a perceived thinness. However, the 50mm lug-to-lug length is a point of contention, with some finding it a drawback while others report it fits flush on larger wrists and curves well on smaller ones. The clasp is reported to scratch easily, and some owners note dust can collect on the dial, while the lume is considered not strong and the bracelet lacks end links. Overall, owners value the Longines LEGEND DIVER 42 BLACK LACQUERED for its appealing vintage aesthetic and comfortable wearability, despite some practical concerns regarding the clasp and dial.
