What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Grand Seiko STGF359

Owners widely praise the Grand Seiko STGF359 for its elegant pairing with an engagement ring. Some owners find the 29mm case size too small for a man's wrist, while others suggest it can be worn by men with smaller wrists, recommending an in-person try-on. One owner notes potential date wheel misalignment requiring servicing. The bracelet has a maximum perimeter of 185mm, with extra links available. On balance, owners value the Grand Seiko STGF359 for its elegant aesthetic, though its small size is a point of consideration.

From video reviewers

The Grand Seiko STGF359 features a 9F quartz movement with exceptional accuracy, deviating by only +/−10 seconds per year. A drawback of the watch is its 40mm case size, which may be a concern for those with smaller wrists. Reviewers disagree on the type of movement, with one praising the 9F quartz and the other highlighting the spring drive movement.

Yema Diver

One owner reported a water ingress issue on their Yema Diver the first time it got wet in a lake, despite rinsing and inspecting the watch and bezel. Another owner notes this manual wind Yema Diver has a cool patina but is unlikely to be waterproof or gain value. Overall, owners view the Yema Diver as a fun second watch rather than an investment.

From video reviewers

The Swiss Sellita movement is a notable feature. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses.
