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 XS

Owners widely praise the Sternglas Naos XS for its simple, awesome design, domed sapphire crystal, and clean hands, with one owner highlighting the beautiful blue mother-of-pearl dial and top-notch build quality on a special edition. It is recommended as a durable, refined daily wear watch for around $270, suitable for casual and formal occasions. However, one owner found the Sternglas Naos XS to have a cheap feel and a face resembling a toy, noting it wears smaller than expected, while another described the automatic movement as a bit noisy. On balance, owners rate the Sternglas Naos XS highly for its refined design and value, with specific praise for the mother-of-pearl dial on special editions.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
