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.

Longines ELEGANT COLLECTION

The Longines Elegant Collection is widely praised for its value and traditional styling, offering versatility for both casual and formal wear. Owners note its elegant appearance can be suitable for any occasion. However, some find its thickness and hand color potentially confusing, with polished hands sometimes difficult to read in certain light. On balance, owners rate the Longines Elegant Collection highly for its value and timeless design.
