[Who drew that line?] - Shoutout to Sternglas, an amazing German microbrand, NOT just another fashion brand.

Just wanted to give a shoutout to Sternglas โ€“ a brand that's been impressing me lately. Their use of the fantastic Bauhaus design on their watches is seriously on point.

I've got to say, the watch movement they offer in relation to the price is pretty darn good.

Now, about the Naos model โ€“ the minor changes they've made in the latest versions have taken it up a notch. It's even better now.

I think it's important to highlight that Sternglas isn't just another fashion watch brand. It's not fair to categorize it like that. It's more than that. It's a brand that watch enthusiasts like us can appreciate. So, if you're on the lookout for an amazing Bauhaus design at a reasonable price, Sternglas is definitely worth checking out.

Cheers to loving watches that strike the right balance between design, substance, and price!

The company is headquarter in Hamburg, Germany, so I was inclined to purchase one of their watches, as I was a student in the city years ago. Then I looked at the brand story, and the "designed in Hamburg". I left it at that.

I can see why you like them. I would like to have a Naos quartz. It has the classic Bauhaus look but not at Junghans or Nomos prices.

I donโ€™t have an agenda. I just relayed my experience with the brand, which led to my opinion. Did you check out the watch I mentioned?

Youโ€™re a funny guy and it seems emotionally invested in this particular watch brand โ€” bully for you.

NB: I donโ€™t think you can say oneโ€™s subjective experiences with a brand is inaccurate.

What reply excactly you wanted from the customer support? Something like โ€œwe are sorry that you havenโ€™t checked properly the pictures online showing that the gmt ring printed numbers are very small and you canโ€™t see them at a glance. We will refund you in full and offer a voucher for your mistake. Aa you can also keep the watch!!โ€

Whatโ€™s your point?

My point is.. thatโ€™s the design of the watch. If you donโ€™t like it you donโ€™t buy it or at least return it unused under the 30 day free returns. bashing the brand just because you made a bad decision is not appropriate eapecially when saying that itโ€™s worst than a fashion brand. Regarding low quality straps, I still need to find brand selling a watch for under โ‚ฌ500 to offer a decent strap (apart from chinese โ€œhomage/copiesโ€) Please note that Iโ€™m just an enthusiast who doesnโ€™t own one but is considering one of their 38mm.

Best of luck with your purchase. I just relayed my experience and opinion. Feel free to ignore it.
