What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Ikepod Megapod M002

The Ikepod Megapod M002 is praised for its unique design and comfortable wearability, with owners noting it wears smaller than its 46mm case size due to its lugless, pebble-like shape. Legibility is good, aided by generous Super-LumiNova, and it is powered by a Miyota 9039 automatic movement. Some find the considerable size limits wearability for wrists under 44mm. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Ikepod Megapod M002 for its distinctive design and surprisingly comfortable wearability despite its substantial dimensions.

Sternglas Tachymeter

The Sternglas Tachymeter is praised for its sporty chronograph design and wrist presence, offering character without being an overt tool watch. Reviewers note it as an improvement over its predecessor, featuring an upscale design with a colored aluminum bezel insert and more colorful dial options. It utilizes the Seiko VK63 meca-quartz movement, is accurate to ±20 seconds per month, and boasts a three-year battery life, all at a competitive price of €389. The Sternglas Tachymeter is considered good value for its design, functionality, and small-brand cachet, offering a charming youthfulness. One reviewer noted that the "orange" on one model appeared yellow, and suggested a tachymeter scale extending to 200 instead of 500 would be more useful. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Tachymeter highly for its value and appealing, youthful chronograph design.
