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.

The Laco Dresden 38's 38mm case is praised for its comfortable fit, and the stonewashed finish is a standout feature. Owners appreciate the Type B dial's legibility and lume. The blue hands can appear black in certain lighting, offering an occasional pop of color. One owner notes consistent accuracy of +2.5 seconds per day and finds the manual wind feel superior to automatics. Overall, owners rate the Laco Dresden 38 highly for its legibility and unique case finishing at the price.
