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 Fortitude Pro

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro for its scratch-resistant coating, thin and compact 38.5mm case, and versatile dial options. The layered finishing with polished chamfers and comfortable bracelet are frequently highlighted as strong points, contributing to its wearability. One owner notes good timekeeping, while a reviewer states the Miyota 9015 movement is adjusted to +/-10 seconds per day. A potential drawback mentioned is the date numeral appearing in half shadow due to anti-magnetic shielding, and one owner considers the bracelet clasp dated. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Astor + Banks Fortitude Pro highly for its durable construction and thoughtful design at its price point.

Farer CUSHION CASE

The Farer CUSHION CASE is widely praised for its reinterpreted case with dramatic angles and steeper bezel slope, vibrant gradient dials crafted with a unique spinning and layering process, and the visual refinement of the Elaboré-grade Sellita SW210-1 movement with custom engraving. Owners appreciate the case's "bat-ear" lugs, sloping bezel, polished finish, and scalloping between the lugs for strap integration, with specific colorways like pistachio and tea green dials being favorites. Some commenters note the grey numeral track on the salmon dial or eastern Arabic markings on the green dial as detractors, and one user questions the choice of a manual-wind movement over an automatic. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Farer CUSHION CASE highly for its distinctive case design and vibrant, textured dials.
