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

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XL for its versatile Bauhaus design, domed sapphire crystal, and value, with some finding its larger size comfortable and refined for its price. However, opinions are split on its aesthetic appeal, with one owner finding the hands and face underwhelming, while others appreciate the minimalistic dial. The date font is noted as too small to be useful by one owner, and the stock strap is generally considered basic or prone to wear. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting a Miyota movement running fast and another noting +13 seconds per day. Overall, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XL highly for its Bauhaus aesthetics and affordability, despite some reservations about the movement and strap.

Vario NAVI Single Hand Compass

Owners praise the Vario NAVI Single Hand Compass for its unique single-hand design and understated nautical theme, finding it reflects their personal style. The watch is a 38mm vintage-inspired timepiece with 100m water resistance. A reviewer notes the Miyota 8s25 automatic movement has a 40-hour power reserve and its unidirectional winding rotor may wobble. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario NAVI Single Hand Compass for its refreshingly different take and casual time-telling dial.
