What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer MOONPHASE

Owners widely praise the Farer MOONPHASE for its unique design, hand-painted moon elements, and satisfying construction, with many highlighting the X1 Super-LumiNova indices and numerals for excellent nighttime legibility. The watch features a 38.5mm cushion case with a distinctive "grain twist" finish and is powered by a Sellita SW288-1 Ma Elaboré Grade movement. Some owners find the moonphase complication easy to set and appreciate the brand's customer service. However, opinions are divided on the price, with some finding it a bit high, and the lume on the hands and hour markers receives mixed feedback, with one owner describing it as "absolute trash" and another as "almost non-existent" while others note its legibility. The thickness of the included leather straps is also mentioned as a trade-off. Overall, owners rate the Farer MOONPHASE highly for its unique character and hand-crafted details at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Farer MOONPHASE has amazing lume and a reliable movement. The case finishing is not perfect, with a polishing flaw. Reviewers disagree on the watch's design, with one highlighting the unique moonphase complication and range of designs, while the other does not mention any specific design-related issues.

Tissot T-Complication Squelette

Owners widely praise the Tissot T-Complication Squelette for its mesmerizing mechanical movement and industrial look, with many finding it offers great value. The pallet fork ticking is frequently noted as loud, a characteristic some owners appreciate while others find it noticeable in quiet environments. Some users flag the non-hacking seconds hand as a drawback for precise time setting, and opinions on its size are mixed, with some finding it too large for thin wrists. Overall, owners rate the Tissot T-Complication Squelette highly for its quality craftsmanship and the captivating skeletonized movement at its price point.
