Miyota

Miyota's premium automatic caliber positioned as a Japanese alternative to the ETA 2824-2 and Sellita SW200-1. The 9015 adds hacking, hand-winding, and a smoother 28,800 vph beat rate over the budget 8215. Its thinner profile and higher jewel count make it a favorite among microbrands seeking a reliable mid-range movement that punches above its price point.

“

Owners widely praise the Laco Jena 38's Type B dial for its legibility and lume, with one owner noting consistent +2.5s/day accuracy. The manual wind feel is described as superior to automatics. However, opinions on the lume are split, with one owner finding it weak while another adores it. Some owners find the included strap's buckle chunky and prefer aftermarket options. Overall, owners rate the Laco Jena 38 highly for its legible Type B dial and satisfying manual wind action at the price.
