What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Gruppo Gamma Vanguard Weathered

The satin-finished steel case is well-executed and aesthetically pleasing. The watch's lumières de nuit are not particularly bright, which might be a drawback for some users. Reviewers disagree on the watch's originality, with one reviewer finding it pleasing in-person and another describing it as decidedly derivative.

Farer 36MM THREE HAND

The Farer 36MM THREE HAND is praised for its vibrant dials, compact 1960s-inspired design with fluid lines and slim bezel, and a 68-hour power reserve from its La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement. Reviewers note the 39mm stainless steel case features polished finishes and brushed lugs, a screwed-down crown, and 100m water resistance. Some models include Super-LumiNova Arabic numerals and applied markers with syringe hands. One reviewer found the included red strap too thick and stiff, and the minute hashes difficult to read. On balance, reviewers highlight the unique dial colors and textures, along with the accessible price point, as key strengths of the Farer 36MM THREE HAND collection.
