What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Ikepod Seapod S030

The Ikepod Seapod S030 is praised for its refined, enthusiast-oriented design and unique pebble shape, featuring a sandwich dial with 3D colored hour markers. It houses a Miyota 9039 automatic movement and offers a 200m depth rating, all within a 46mm steel case for just over $1,600 USD. Reviewers note the lume is weak and the seconds hand lacks lume, while the bezel is unknurled. On balance, reviewers find the Ikepod Seapod S030 a successful and affordable timepiece with a unique design.

Sternglas Naos XL Automatik

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik as an amazing and best affordable automatic Bauhaus watch for its price. However, some owners find the 42mm case size too large, with one describing it as resembling a "flying saucer" on a 7.25-inch wrist, and another noting its unsuitability for a predominantly white dial. The Miyota movement is described as just okay. Overall, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik highly for its value proposition as an affordable Bauhaus automatic.
