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.

Tissot PRX Damascus Steel

The Tissot PRX Damascus Steel is noted for its unique Damascus steel case and dial, which some owners find visually appealing and appreciate the intricate pattern. One owner enjoys looking at the watch's movement. The 38mm size is considered reasonable for the price, though it may be too small for some wrists. One owner experienced a scratch that detracted from the Damascus pattern, but this was resolved by the dealer. The reviewer found the Damascus steel case and dial to be "a bit over the top." Overall, owners and reviewers find the Tissot PRX Damascus Steel to be a unique watch with a polarizing aesthetic, with its value tied to its distinctive material.
