Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners report the Sternglas Naos can feel underwhelming with a cheap feel and hands resembling office printer output, with some finding it wears smaller than expected and looks like a toy, though others appreciate its understated design. Reviewers highlight the Argo Automatic variant as a compelling sub-€400 mechanical watch with a colorful dial and practical date wheel, suitable for new collectors, featuring a 38mm case and a Miyota 8215 movement. On balance, the consensus is that the Sternglas Naos offers a mixed ownership experience, with its value proposition and entry-level appeal being its strongest points for some.
The Sternglas Naos Pro GMT Automatik features a clean Bauhaus design that sets it apart from other GMT watches. A notable weakness is the watch's bezel action, which is not as smooth as some reviewers would have liked. Reviewers disagree on the watch's case size, with one reviewer stating it's slightly larger than the original Naos Automatic, while another reviewer doesn't mention this aspect at all.
The Schofield B3 is widely praised for its exceptional packaging and the unique character of its pre-patinated bronze case, which reviewers found imbues the watch with warmth. Owners highlight its comfortable wearability, attributing it to a flat case back that mitigates its 44mm size, and the striking petrol blue and gold dial. One owner notes the winding action of the steel crown as a minor point of contention. The value proposition is debated within the community, with some questioning the inclusion of a Seiko NH34 movement at its price point. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Schofield B3 highly for its distinctive case patina and thoughtful design details.
