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.

Lorier Zephyr

Owners widely praise the Lorier Zephyr for its stunning guilloche-style dial, refined and perfectly sized unique case shape, and comfortable wearability. The Miyota 9 series movement is noted by owners as being a little noisy, with a rotor whirring audible on quick hand movements. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Zephyr highly for its distinctive dial and case design at the price.

From video reviewers

The watch's vintage aesthetic and value for money are praised. The bracelet's refinement and perceived rattle are noted as a drawback.
