What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Oak & Oscar The Humboldt 12-hr

Oak & Oscar The Humboldt 12-hr owners widely praise its comfortable, solid bracelet with screw links and tight end-link fit, along with its awesome sandwich dial featuring superb grain and crisp details. The 12-hour bezel is noted as excellent for tracking a second time zone, and the orange second hand adds a nice pop. One owner reports the watch has outstanding quality and a perfect fit on smaller wrists, while another notes its legibility and great presence on various straps. A reviewer describes it as a 40mm stainless steel tool watch with a matte, brushed finish and a sandwich dial, powered by an ETA 2892-A2 movement with a 42-hour power reserve. Some in the line report the lume could be brighter. On balance, owners and reviewers rate Oak & Oscar The Humboldt 12-hr highly for its build quality and versatile tool-watch design.

Lorier Roosevelt

Owners widely praise the Lorier Roosevelt's stunning dial, precise stamping, and clean printing, with its brass case and Horween strap also receiving positive remarks. Some owners find it wears perfectly on a 7" wrist. However, the Miyota 9-series rotor is noted as being "insanely loud," and the original $800 price point is considered steep by some, particularly given the lack of lume and competition. One owner sold it for $525, highlighting it as a great deal on a sold-out item. Overall, owners value the Lorier Roosevelt for its attractive dial and case finishing, though price and rotor noise are points of contention.
