Owners widely praise the Straton Speciale Automatic or Quartz watch for its attractive retro design, TV-shaped case, and fun color options, with many noting its solid construction and wearability on smaller wrists due to its compact lug-to-lug measurement. Accuracy figures for the automatic variant are reported around +2 seconds per day. The meca-quartz version is considered reasonably priced and a good value, with one owner noting nice finishing for the price point. Some owners find the Straton Speciale to be a bit overpriced, and one reviewer mentioned smudging on the bezel. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Straton Speciale Automatic or Quartz watch highly for its distinctive retro styling and good value, particularly for the meca-quartz models.
