KUOE OLD SMITH 90-007vsFurlan Marri Outback Elegy

Owners widely praise the KUOE OLD SMITH for its distinctive vintage aesthetic, with specific admiration for the blue hands that pop in sunlight and the satisfying chunky numerals. The watch is considered a discreet dress or office option, with one owner cherishing it despite an initial defective crown. The 38mm size is noted as a perfect fit by one owner, while another finds the 35mm size and 12mm thickness can be problematic on smaller wrists. The $635 price is considered high for the NH38 movement and standard specifications, though some believe the premium is justified by Kuoe's unique design language and microbrand status. Accuracy is reported at -5 seconds per day, but the Super-LumiNova is weak. Overall, owners rate the KUOE OLD SMITH highly for its unique design and cherished vintage aesthetic at the price.

Owners widely praise the Furlan Marri Outback Elegy for its stunning, multi-finished brown sector dial with rose gold Roman numerals and comfortable 37.5mm case with cowhorn lugs. The watch is noted for its high-quality finishing and includes two leather straps. The La Joux-Perret G100 movement offers a 68-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Furlan Marri Outback Elegy highly for its phenomenal dial and comfortable, vintage-inspired case design.
