Merkur Chinese Year Watch owners widely praise its stunning appearance and value, with many feeling it looks far more expensive than its $129 price point, particularly admiring the dial's design and attention to detail. The winding action is described as satisfying, and the watch is considered well-built and fancy. Accuracy varies, with one owner reporting +9 seconds per day, while another notes the Seagull ST2130 movement has had quality issues for some. Some owners find the watch has sharp edges, and the included BOR bracelet and burlap-style strap are considered cheap and rough. The tall crystal is noted as an interesting feature. Overall, owners rate the Merkur Chinese Year Watch highly for its impressive aesthetics and perceived value, despite some minor quality concerns with the strap and bracelet.
