What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Baltic Hermétique Summer

Reviewers highlight the Baltic Hermétique Summer's compact 37mm brushed case with a polished bezel and 150 meters of water resistance. The watch features glossy dials in bright colors with raised BGW9 Super-LumiNova indices that emit a strong blue glow, and it comes with color-matched FKM rubber straps or Baltic bracelets. The Miyota 9039 movement supports hacking and hand-winding. However, the recessed crown can be difficult to manipulate if fingernails are not long enough, and the movement has a stated accuracy of -10/+30 seconds per day. Overall, reviewers praise the Baltic Hermétique Summer for its well-balanced, colorful dials and strong lume at an affordable price point.

Sternglas Naos XL Automatik

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik as an amazing and best affordable automatic Bauhaus watch for its price. However, some owners find the 42mm case size too large, with one describing it as resembling a "flying saucer" on a 7.25-inch wrist, and another noting its unsuitability for a predominantly white dial. The Miyota movement is described as just okay. Overall, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik highly for its value proposition as an affordable Bauhaus automatic.
