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 Chrono

Owners widely praise the Astor + Banks Chrono for its sporty design, wrist-friendly 38.5mm size, and enthusiast-friendly price starting at $525. One reviewer notes the date numeral is consistently half in shadow due to deep-set placement. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Astor + Banks Chrono highly for its design and value at the price point.

Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT for its 36mm size and 11.2mm thinness, vintage-inspired design, and crisp finishing. The champagne sunburst dial and integrated bracelet are frequently highlighted as attractive elements. Some owners note the bezel font as a detractor, and a reviewer points out the lume is insignificant. The watch uses a caller GMT movement, and one owner finds the small crown impractical to manipulate. Accuracy is reported as within +/- 4 seconds per day, and it features 20 ATM water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT for its refined design and compact dimensions, though some question its value proposition for an emerging brand.
