I really dig thr look of this. The Quartz version is also significantly thinner than the auto which i think makes it look even more minimalist
@dave-ld8mo Жыл бұрын
I usually don't go for Quartz, but in my opinion the Naos Quartz is by far the better option. It is cheaper, the movement is actually really solid. With the Quartz version you get a switz made Quartz by Ronda instead of the japanese Automatic by Myota. And the selling point for me is that the Quartz version is only 6mm thick. So it basically has only half the thickness of the Automatic version.

I picked this up at a super early bird price of about $200 in the Indigogo campaign a couple of years ago complete with 2 straps that are very comfortable. A Junghans would have been nice but I have no desire to spend that much on a watch. I currently have it on a Milanese bracelet which gives it a different look. The 821A is a nice little movement that has proved to be quite accurate.

As someone who absolutely loves the Nomos Orion but can't quite afford one yet, the quartz version ticks almost all the boxes for me: - 38mm diameter with 6mm thickness is perfect for my small wrist. - No long lugs, making this better than the Orion. - Blue pencil hands with no second hands (for the quartz version). - It has the same subtly domed sapphire just like the Orion. - Case looks very well-polished and nicely shaped. - Personal opinion: Quartz is more in-line with the Bauhaus design philosophy than mechanical. The only things keeping me hesitant are: - I really want small seconds. - The dial is rather busy compared to the Orion. It's closer to the Max Bill aesthetic but doesn't quite has its own charm.

I received this watch from my partner for my birthday and unfortunately will be returning it. If you search Sternglas Automatic noise on YT, you will see others will the same issue as I am having, the weight/pendulum tends to rattle ever so slightly and making winding noises. Also like Stergales own video's, this video is a bit misleading to the viewer to believe this is a German made watch. Unfortunately again, like most kickstarter watches, the watches are assembled in china, and only the office is based in Germany. Watch keeps time great, and sapphire glass look tip top, but you are paying premium price for something subpar, with a movement that costs less than $50 At the price of $695 AUD!! I am exchanging the watch for a Seiko.

After researching for a couple of weeks, I just ordered their current limited Naos Edition Oxford, with a shallower case housing a Miyota 9015 and an alabaster-colored dial. Let's see if this is the Max Bill alternative at half the price! If it is and I decide to keep it, it might even get some collector's value. I originally didn't want to spend more than 300€, now I spent twice the money, but this one just ticks all the boxes.

There seem to be 2 different variants of this exact watch. One with a visually more elaborate movement like the one Teddy has here and one with a more plain looking movement on the official Sternglas product page. What’s up with that? 🤔
@RubenO.K.Ай бұрын
For anyone who’s wondering the same thing, here’s the response I got from Sternglas Customer Support (Translated from German): “A few years ago we still used the Miyota 821A movement in our watches. However, Miyota then took this movement off the market and replaced it with the Miyota 8215. This movement works just as well technically, it just looks different and now even has a stop-second function.”

@dave-ld8mo Жыл бұрын
There are a few reasons why you could say it is a fashion watch. Firstly , the brand was founded 2016 and therefore has no history and heritage. Secondly, it is heavy with marketing on social media. Lastly, the designs are heavily inspired by the likes of Junghans and Nomos. However, it is still not a bad watch. In fact, it has some unique attributes specially in that price range. The only affordable Bauhaus watch with a smaller 38mm dial. And the Quarz version comes without second hands which looks even more minimalistic. I own one and I enjoy wearing it
