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.

William Wood Beacon

The William Wood Beacon is praised for its bold flavors, particularly its prominent oak and rye influence, with tasting notes of candied orange peel, dried apricots, and baking spices, and a long, full finish. Some find its oak-forward profile overwhelming and its MSRP of $300 unreasonable. Overall, owners rate the William Wood Beacon highly for its bold flavors and character, with one owner awarding it a score of 9.4/10.
