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. However, some owners find the 42mm case size too large, with one describing it as resembling a "flying saucer" on a 7.25-inch wrist, and another noting its unsuitability for a predominantly white dial. 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.

Spinnaker Croft 39 GMT

Owners praise the Spinnaker Croft 39 GMT for its colorful design, NH34 GMT movement, and reasonable price, noting high-standard manufacturing on the case, bezel, and bracelet. One owner finds the 43mm case and 51mm lug-to-lug dimensions too large for the design, preferring a 39-40mm case size. A potential issue with the lume was noted by one user. On balance, owners value the Spinnaker Croft 39 GMT for its attractive design and build quality at its price point, though sizing is a point of contention for some.
