What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Astor + Banks AB Clásico

The Astor + Banks Silver is praised for its nice finishing on the case and dial, with a nice texture on the dial. The watch's lug-to-lug fit is relatively slim, making it comfortable to wear. A weakness of the watch is its lume, which could be a bit brighter.

Maen Manhattan 37

Owners widely praise the Maen Manhattan 37's visually rich dial and refined finishing, with some noting its sleek, trim 37mm case and impressive timekeeping. The bracelet receives mixed reactions, with some finding it cheap and lacking compared to alternatives, while others appreciate its taper and overall value. One reviewer highlights the Ultra-Thin variant's slim 7.1mm case and 100m water resistance, powered by a manually wound ETA Pesaux 7001 movement. Conversely, another owner reports a Ronda 150 movement running fast at +18s/d to +24s/d, and some with 6.5-inch wrists find the 47mm lug-to-lug distance wears larger than expected. The Maen Manhattan 37 offers excellent value with its Art Deco-inspired design and remarkable light play on the dial. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Maen Manhattan 37 highly for its visually rich dial and refined finishing at the price.
