What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Makydo Contour

Owners widely praise the Makydo Contour Carrara for its asymmetrical case shape and elegant, classy design, deeming it suitable for dressier and formal occasions. Some owners find the included leather strap more fitting for such events. Several commenters, however, question its value, stating it is too expensive at €587.39. On balance, owners appreciate the Makydo Contour's distinctive design, though a segment of the community finds the price point prohibitive.

From video reviewers

The Makydo Contour is praised for its comfortable fit due to its slim case and compact lug-to-lug. The Miyota 9015/9039 automatic movement is considered reliable for the price point. The 30-meter water resistance is a noted limitation.

Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV-D Auto

The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV-D Auto is praised for its durable construction, featuring a sandblasted steel case with improved lugs, a bi-directional bezel with excellent action, and 100m water resistance. Owners appreciate the constant visibility provided by self-illuminating tritium gas tubes and the precision of its ETA F06.412 quartz movement, which offers accuracy to about 10 seconds per year. The watch includes a GMT bezel for dual timekeeping and a synthetic sapphire crystal. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV-D Auto highly for its robust tool-watch design and reliable tritium illumination.
