What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.

Owners widely praise the Longines EVIDENZA for its distinctive tonneau shape, which is seen as a refreshing alternative to standard rectangular watches, and its intricate detailing, including scalloped case ridges and a guilloche dial. The blued hands and dial texture are frequently highlighted as elegant features, with one owner cherishing theirs for 16 years. Some find the date window on the chronograph variant detracts from the overall design, while others appreciate its utility, and one owner notes the "6" numeral is partially cut off. On balance, owners rate the Longines EVIDENZA highly for its unique aesthetic and refined detailing.
