What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sternglas Hamburg Automatik

Owners praise the Sternglas Hamburg Automatik's handsome design and good build quality for the price. The watch features a gold PVD case and a matte blue dial with orange Super-LumiNova, and its 42mm diameter wears well due to a short lug-to-lug distance. The Miyota 8215 movement is accurate to -20/+40 seconds per day. On balance, reviewers and owners appreciate the Sternglas Hamburg Automatik for its unique design and value.

Pagani Design PD-1796

The Pagani Design PD-1796 features an open-heart design, not a tourbillon as initially marketed, and includes a noticeable blue anti-reflective coating. Owners are divided on its aesthetic, with some appreciating its unique dial layout and manual/automatic movement, while others find the design unappealing and criticize the lack of AR coating for legibility issues. On balance, the consensus is that owners find the Pagani Design PD-1796 polarizing due to its misrepresented complication and mixed reception on its dial design and AR coating.
