Product Description
From Junkers, a German company known for its Bauhaus- and pilot-style designs, the 6050 is somewhat of a combination of the two. The dial is very minimal: Save for minute markers in increments of five and a date window, it’s mostly open space Read More
I love everything about this watch especially the white dial version, I just can’t pull the trigger because of that ridiculous logo. It detracts from what would be a perfect minimalist look. Just my opinion of course. Your mileage may vary.
Hello Watch experts,
What would you prefer, ETA 2824-2 or Miyota 9015 watch? Would these two be considered better than Seiko's 4S36 or MH-35?
I'm trying to do some research before buying first automatic. I've decided to not spend more than 350$, maybe buy something around 1k if I really like no-battery watch. Thank you in advance for answers.
Vonsoo2824 and 9015 are fine calibers. from a technical perspective 9015 is a bit more advanced but doesnt make it necessarily 'better' because if you get the watches regulated, you'll get very good accuracy out of both.
if you want an automatic, pick up any seiko like the skx/50 fanthoms etc. great quality watches, and if you like it, you can go bigger.
I have one of these and they don't feel incredibly premium. A Seiko would win hands-down. However I really like the design a lot.
Also, the watch is VERY loud. (The winding mechanism at least...) But that does not really bug me that much.
This is a good price from what I've found at least.

My colleague has this watch and it has some serious QA issues: his seconds hand is rubbing against the crystal and has actually left a very visible stripe on the inside between the 10 and 2 o'clock position. I would not have believed it if I hadn't seen it myself. He's in the process of contacting their service desk, so let's see how they handle that...
But I would be very hesitant buying one without any warranty! (edit: he has the 6050-5 model)
'Made in Germany' standard is very lackluster. I've seen watches with claim "made in Germany" that were almost completely made and assembled in China with only a few German parts in the assembly. Of course there are exceptional quality German branded watches like Nomos, Stowa, UTS, Sinn, etc, but one needs to be very careful and make a lot of research before buying watch with 'Made in Germany' on the dial.
Typo in the description vs the specs:
> This automatic is controlled by an ETA 2824-2 movement of 25 jewels with a 28-hour power reserve.
38 hour power reserve stated in the specs (which I suspect is the correct number).
