What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Brew Metric

The Brew Metric is widely praised for its 1970s-inspired retro design, with reviewers and owners specifically highlighting its unique dial aesthetics, compact 36mm case size, and comfortable wearability on various wrist sizes. The watch's finishing is frequently lauded, with particular appreciation for its contrasting brushed and polished surfaces and well-executed gold treatment. Owners also note the pleasing feel of the pushers and crown, the accuracy of the VK68 meca-quartz movement, and the sapphire crystal. However, some owners report quality control issues, including dial defects and missing lume, and a few find the bezel dents easily. The bracelet is a point of contention, with some finding it uncomfortable and prone to pulling arm hairs, while others praise its dramatic taper. The watch's 50-meter water resistance is considered cautious by one reviewer, and the lug width of 19.85mm limits strap options.

From video reviewers

The watch's unique design and compact dimensions are praised. The bracelet is noted as stiff and lacking flexibility. Reviewers were divided on whether the Seiko NH35A movement or the meca-quartz movement offered better value at the price point.

Zelos Artemis

The watch's unique modular case construction with a sandblasted titanium outer case and a grey/white Cerakote coating on the center is a notable strength. The FKM rubber strap can be prone to a slight rattle, which may be a minor annoyance for some owners. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value proposition, with one reviewer questioning its value for collectors.
