What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sternglas Naos XL Automatik

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik as an amazing and best affordable automatic Bauhaus watch for its price.

The Miyota movement is described as just okay. Overall, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XL Automatik highly for its value proposition as an affordable Bauhaus automatic.

Phoibos Argo Bronze

Owners widely praise the Phoibos Argo Bronze for its appealing design, natural patina development, and the smooth sweep of its Miyota 9015 movement. One owner highlights the watch as a "wearable piece of art," appreciating its color combinations and overall feel. The included band is noted as a good fit for narrow wrists. Overall, owners rate the Phoibos Argo Bronze highly for its aesthetic appeal and the quality of its movement.
