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.

Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONO MOONPHASE

Owners widely praise the Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONO MOONPHASE for its beautiful and legible dial, offering significant complications for its value. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting +8 seconds per day and another stating it is their most accurate watch. Some find the chronograph hour hand placement inconvenient, and the date hand can occasionally overlap the hour hand. The watch is noted as being thick, typical of Valjoux-based chronographs, and its 3 bar water resistance limits it to less demanding environments. One owner observed scuffs on the case of their example, and another found the blue on the band and numerals less vibrant than pictured. Overall, owners rate the Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONO MOONPHASE highly for its impressive complications and aesthetic appeal at its price point.
