    Not philip stein. Never heard of them so i googled them. They have essentially no information at all about their watches, just photos. I cant see water resistance or any info on movements or even sizes for that matter.

    The only way to even know which watches are quartz or automatic is by filtering in the shop page. But zero info on who makes those movements, how accurate they are, what the power reserve is or anything else like that.

    So definetly not that. Thats most likely just a cheap chinese fashion watch with a german/swiss sounding name.

    Oris and FC on the other hand are both very proper and popular swiss brands. So both of those are fine. Personally i’m leaning towards Oris, because thats what i got (Oris Aquis) but there is absolutely nothing wrong with Frederique Constant.

    Maybe give some info about which models you are considering, then people can give you more specific info.
