What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Formex Essence Leggera FortyThree

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Formex Essence Leggera FortyThree for its exceptionally light and comfortable forged carbon case, innovative suspension system, and detailed CNC-cut dial. The chronometer-grade Sellita SW200-1 movement is noted for its accuracy, and the bracelet is described as fantastic. Some owners find the design not to their taste, and while its 43mm size and light weight contribute to good wearability, one reviewer notes the unique style limits versatility. The watch is considered pricey for a microbrand but worth the cost due to its quality and engineering. Overall, owners rate the Formex Essence Leggera FortyThree highly for its innovative construction and comfortable wearability.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
