What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

NOMOS Glashütte Lux white gold

The NOMOS Glashütte Lux white gold is a limited edition of 100 pieces, measuring 40.5mm by 36mm with a slim 8.95mm thickness and wire lugs. It is powered by the in-house, manually-wound DUW 2002 movement, which provides an 84-hour power reserve. The watch is available with a silvery white dial or a two-tone dial featuring silvery white registers on a light blue ground. Owners question its value proposition at $20,500, noting it approaches the price of other high-end timepieces, though some appreciate the gold chatons in the movement. On balance, the NOMOS Glashütte Lux white gold is a niche offering with a high price point that leads some to question its value despite its in-house movement and slim profile.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
