What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Straton Curve Chrono MKII

The watch offers a retro motorsport aesthetic with a quality finish and well-chosen movements at an affordable price. Reviewers did not agree on any specific weaknesses.

LONGINES AVIGATION BIGEYE

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Longines Avigation Bigeye for its unique, asymmetric dial, vintage military aesthetic, and cohesive design, with one reviewer noting its GPHG Best Revival prize win. The tactile chronograph pusher action and reliable L688.2 column wheel movement are highlighted, as is the watch's legibility and versatile strap-swapping potential due to its 20mm lug width. However, criticisms include the 30-minute sub-dial's three-minute hash marks, which some find compromise reading speed, and the lack of drilled lugs. The watch's thickness, around 14.45mm, is noted as typical for its movement, and some owners mention minor QC issues with chronograph hand alignment and a loud rotor. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Longines Avigation Bigeye highly for its distinctive vintage-inspired design and solid chronograph performance at its price point.
