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.

Farer ROCHÉ II

The Farer ROCHÉ II is widely praised for its excellent value, thoughtful case finishing with contrasting textures, and its wearable 39mm size. Owners and reviewers highlight the quality of the dial and case, with one owner noting the five-year movement warranty. However, one owner points out the absence of lume on their version's indices, and a reviewer observed a roughness on the micro pique dial's edges in direct light. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Farer ROCHÉ II highly for its exceptional value and well-executed design at its price point.
