What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

RZE Urbanist

The RZE Urbanist is widely praised as a fantastic, lightweight, "grab and go" everyday watch. Owners highlight its durable titanium case with scratch-resistant coatings and sapphire crystal. The solar movement is noted for keeping good time and is guaranteed for life. Production models feature a push-in crown, a change from earlier screw-down versions. Overall, owners rate the RZE Urbanist highly for its durable, lightweight titanium construction and reliable solar movement.

From video reviewers

The RZE Urbanist features a Japanese movement for accurate timekeeping and reliable performance. The watch's lume brightness is a shared weakness, with both reviewers noting it could be improved. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering it a 'great value' for the price, while the other highlights its solar power feature as a significant strength.

Longines FLAGSHIP HERITAGE MOONPHASE

The Longines Flagship Heritage Moonphase is widely praised for its elegant aesthetic, balanced midnight blue dial with dauphine hands and wedge indices, and the L899.5 movement's 72-hour power reserve. Owners appreciate its value, classy integrated moonphase complication with a night blue background and shiny silver stars, and comfortable 38.5mm case size with good finishing, fitting well on smaller wrists. However, reviewers and owners note its minimal 30-meter water resistance, a 3 o'clock crown that appears undersized, and a thickness of 12.4mm, which some find hinders its dress watch suitability and ability to slip under a cuff, though others find it wearable. Some also consider the design overly traditional and the rehaut depth excessive. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Longines Flagship Heritage Moonphase highly for its elegant design and value proposition at its price point.
