What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph

Owners widely report a split on build quality, with some finding the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph's construction unimpressive due to issues like a poorly seated bezel and crooked indices, while others praise its robustness and aesthetic appeal. The unique dial features character hands and glowing eyes serving as subdials and a 24-hour indicator, though the chronograph function is limited to 60 minutes. On balance, the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph elicits divided opinions on its build quality, with its artistic dial design being a notable, albeit polarizing, feature.

From video reviewers

The Spinnaker Googly Black's notable strength is its reported water-resistance of 300 fathoms or 550 metres. A weakness of this watch is its lume brightness, which is somewhat lacking. Reviewers disagree on the watch's ideal size, with one reviewer noting its slimmed-down design and the other mentioning its overall size and 26+ millimeter thickness.

NOMOS Glashütte Tangomat ruthenium

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangomat ruthenium for its Glashütte watchmaking and Bauhaus design, with one owner noting accuracy at +2 seconds/day and a 43-hour power reserve. Some owners find the Tangomat thicker than other models, with case proportions that may not suit its sharp design, and one owner expressed a preference for newer movements over the older Epsilon automatic. Overall, owners value the NOMOS Glashütte Tangomat ruthenium for its precise timekeeping and design ethos.
