What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

CWC 1983 RN Divers Quartz Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC 1983 RN Divers Quartz Re-Issue Watch for its historically accurate reproduction, thin profile for a 300m diver, and a second hand that aligns well with indices. Reviewers note its reasonable size on smaller wrists, original dial layout with markers touching the chapter ring, and a broader minute hand. However, criticism is directed at the fixed 20mm bars necessitating specific strap types and the mismatched lume colors between hands and hour markers, with some finding the convex lume on the markers overly shiny. Overall, owners rate the CWC 1983 RN Divers Quartz Re-Issue Watch highly for its accurate vintage aesthetic and wearability.

CWC Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 Black

Owners widely praise the CWC Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 Black for its brushed chapter ring, precise 120-click bezel, clear sapphire crystal, excellent case finishing, and significantly improved lume. The watch is considered a terrific value with solid construction. Some owners express a preference for a matte finish for a more tool-like appearance, though polished versions offer a dressier look and easier scratch removal. On balance, owners rate the CWC Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 Black highly for its tool-like features and excellent value.
