Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
The Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 is praised for its 120-hour power reserve and anti-magnetic properties, with reviewers noting its simplified design and vibrant blue dial. Owners highlight the smooth winding feel of the in-house Calibre 403 movement, which features twin barrels. However, some owners report minor time-setting issues, and the 50-meter water resistance is considered underwhelming by one reviewer, who also notes the deer leather strap's clasp scratches easily. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Oris Big Crown Pointer Date Calibre 403 highly for its impressive power reserve and value proposition.
The 5-day power reserve of the new in-house Calibre 403 movement is a key strength. Reviewers noted the comfortable H-link bracelet and vibrant dial color options.
Oak & Oscar The Humboldt 12-hr owners widely praise its comfortable, solid bracelet with screw links and tight end-link fit, along with its awesome sandwich dial featuring superb grain and crisp details. The 12-hour bezel is noted as excellent for tracking a second time zone, and the orange second hand adds a nice pop. One owner reports the watch has outstanding quality and a perfect fit on smaller wrists, while another notes its legibility and great presence on various straps. A reviewer describes it as a 40mm stainless steel tool watch with a matte, brushed finish and a sandwich dial, powered by an ETA 2892-A2 movement with a 42-hour power reserve. Some in the line report the lume could be brighter. On balance, owners and reviewers rate Oak & Oscar The Humboldt 12-hr highly for its build quality and versatile tool-watch design.
