What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Baltic MR Roulette

The Baltic MR Roulette is praised for its vintage-inspired roulette dial with multi-sector, multi-layer, and asymmetrical design, and faceted dauphine hands. Reviewers highlight the dial's depth created by contrasting textures like circular brushing and glossy or grained sectors, and the 36mm case's vertical bezel brushing and polished lugs. The watch uses a Hangzhou micro-rotor movement. However, reviewers note the micro-rotor movement can feel rattly and loose, producing a jangly sound when tapped. On balance, reviewers appreciate the Baltic MR Roulette's distinctive dial design and vintage aesthetic, despite the noted movement characteristics.

From video reviewers

The MR Roulette's excellent finishing, particularly on the case and the bezel, is a notable strength. The bracelet's noise when moved around is a shared weakness. Reviewers do not explicitly disagree on any specific point.

Sternglas Sedius

The Sternglas Sedius is widely praised for its harmonious blend of Bauhaus minimalism and Art Deco elegance, featuring a well-balanced sector dial and a smooth-sweeping seconds hand from its Seiko VH31 meca-quartz movement. Owners and reviewers note its pleasing wearability due to the case shape and slender lugs, and it is considered an affordable option with a good price-performance ratio. One reviewer flags legibility issues on the black dial variant, while the blue-on-white offers crispness. The Sternglas Sedius lacks a date complication and features a double-domed sapphire crystal. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sternglas Sedius highly for its classy Art Deco aesthetic and value.
