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 Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II

Owners widely praise the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II for its cool retro 70s vibe, faithful reissue of a thin vintage design, and excellent build quality for its price, with particular commendation for its tactile pushers and top-notch Milanese strap. The watch is noted for its substantial, weighty feel and well-aligned indices, and the Seiko VK64 meca-quartz movement provides a sweeping chronograph hand. However, some owners find the meca-quartz ticking not very smooth, the left subdial a "useless" 24h indicator, and the watch overpriced compared to similar models. Several owners report disappointing alignment issues with indices, and one owner experienced the dial rotating slightly when chronograph pushers are depressed or when adjusting the time, with these issues not resolved during service. On balance, owners rate the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz II highly for its retro styling and perceived value, despite some recurring quality control concerns.

From video reviewers

The watch's vintage-inspired design and value at its price point are consistently praised. The meca-quartz movement is mentioned as a feature by multiple reviewers.
