What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Pinion Pure Bronze

The Pinion Pure Bronze is lauded for its refreshing design, featuring a beautiful layered dial with applied numerals and luminous indexes. Reviewers praise its satisfying manual-winding action from the Unitas 6498 movement, which offers a 45-hour power reserve. One reviewer suggested a satin finish for the crown to match the case back and buckle. Overall, reviewers rate the Pinion Pure Bronze highly for its unique bronze case that patinates over time and its clear, subtly finished dial.

Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton

The Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton is noted for its skeletonized dial and the use of BGW9 and C3 Super-LumiNova for legibility. It is powered by a manual-wind ETA 6498 movement, offering a 44-hour power reserve. On balance, the Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton is seen as a cool-looking option, though availability is a factor.
