What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Tissot PRC 100 Solar

Owners and reviewers highlight the Tissot PRC 100 Solar's value and modern, urban aesthetic, with its slim 9.2mm case and good finishing for the price. The solar movement is a key feature, offering a 14-month power reserve and rapid charging capabilities. Some owners find the dial colors a bit uninspired, and the date window placement is disliked, while the second hand's ticking is noted as a drawback compared to automatic movements. The watch's 39mm case is considered versatile, though some prefer a smaller 35-37mm size. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Tissot PRC 100 Solar a versatile daily wear, particularly for its solar technology and Swiss-made appeal at its price point.

Sternglas Tachymeter

The Sternglas Tachymeter is praised for its sporty chronograph design and wrist presence, offering character without being an overt tool watch. Reviewers note it as an improvement over its predecessor, featuring an upscale design with a colored aluminum bezel insert and more colorful dial options. It utilizes the Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement, is accurate to ±20 seconds per month, and boasts a three-year battery life, all at a competitive price of €389. The Sternglas Tachymeter is considered good value for its design, functionality, and small-brand cachet, offering a charming youthfulness. One reviewer noted that the "orange" on one model appeared yellow, and suggested a tachymeter scale extending to 200 instead of 500 would be more useful. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Tachymeter highly for its value and appealing, youthful chronograph design.
