Opinion on Stührling?

I've got one and think it is about right for the price. I'm pretty sure they do the Invicta gag, claiming to be marked down from a stratospheric imaginary MSRP. Similarly dicey is the claim that the owner or founder or whoever's great grandpappy was a master watchmaker of whom perhaps one tiny grainy photo and no real supporting documentation exists.

I think they scrubbed that nonsense from their website, but the tale of the anonymous genius is here.

Fun read, seems like its all pulled out of thin air by jessica 😂

My recollection is that Robert Farago, who has a bit of a journalism background, tried contacting for verification and got no response.

I own two of their pieces, a Meridian GMT and an Aeronaut Flieger with a pretty cool complication. Both are quartz, both are pretty well made, fittings and finish are just fine and both hitting approximately the $100 mark. I like them for what they are and I happily have them among my fleet.

I have seem some of their skeleton pieces and they want upwards of $1,200 or more, I'm just not interested in those at all, especially at that price point.

I bought a few in my naivete in my early days of collecting. They are a poor man's Invicta. (Joking haha). I bought a grand complication quartz because it made sense. Who wants to keep winding that thing?

IMHO, they are adequate for the price ~$100. I wouldn't venture beyond that as others have said.

Frequently seen on the QVC shopping channel here which probably says it all. The over the top sales bumf they come out with would make a snake oil sales man cringe

de verdad que no entiendo a un snobista. si es feliz déjalo y si de criticas pues bien por ti anótate un punto en gusanometro. en fin el arte tiene muchos críticos, y como decía Pablo Picasso el que copia es bueno y el que roba es el mejor en creatividad. Muchos se quejan de la marca, pero mira tissot, hublot, mido, steinhart, rolex, entre otras marcas europeas; homenajean o copian y los movimientos todos vienen del eta 2824 y dicen ser in house. acaso alguno le debe a breguete o a perrelet, no señor este mundo de relojes de muchas gamas, como 5 millones de piezas y salís con esto hacete cargo de tus palabras. obvio si hacen lo de invicta y otras en colocar el puto mrsp y rebajarle hasta por los materiales que noseque siqueque nonono y a la final no permiten que alguien compre disfrute un regalo que copia a baumercier, junhans o no se que reloj de mierda de gama alta y regalale uno de esos ya que estas tan solidario que podes o regalarle las mismas 50 marcas que todos usan como si no hubiera mas. solo falta que digas que el cuarzo no es reloj y te recomiendo mi psiquiatra muy bueno por cierto. ha y hoy dia el chino que vista de seda suizo se queda porque muchos como los motores de carro tienen partes chinas.

Chill bro, I'm just saying it feels like a cash grab for people who don't know/care about watches. They just want a watch that they like the look of, preferably siwss/german for an affordable price.

Stührling do false advertisement, the "Swiss" branding, the exaggerated sales, cheap movements (btw i have nothing against quarz, i have some an plan on getting more), the name that sounds swiss/german. The made up story about the origins/owner of the brand. Just shady and dishonest business practices.

And of course nearly everything is made in China, my beloved lorier watch is surely made in China, but doest pretend to be a Swiss luxury piece, the brand is open about where they take inspiration (here comes the picasso quote you mentioned) etc... wear whatever makes you happy!✌️
