What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lorier Zephyr

Owners widely praise the Lorier Zephyr for its stunning guilloche-style dial, refined and perfectly sized unique case shape, and comfortable wearability. The Miyota 9 series movement is noted by owners as being a little noisy, with a rotor whirring audible on quick hand movements. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Zephyr highly for its distinctive dial and case design at the price.

From video reviewers

The watch's vintage aesthetic and value for money are praised. The bracelet's refinement and perceived rattle are noted as a drawback.

Sternglas Merion

The value proposition of the Sternglas Merion is consistently praised by reviewers. Reviewers disagree on whether the Sternglas Merion is the best dive watch under €500.
