What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely report the CWC 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch as very hard-wearing, with good seconds hand alignment and perfect bezel alignment with crisp action. The lume is described as pretty good despite fauxtina, and the watch gains approximately 3 seconds per month. Some owners consider the CWC 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch overpriced, while others appreciate its bombproof, toolish design and military heritage.

Christopher Ward C60 Sapphire Edge

Owners widely praise the Christopher Ward C60 Sapphire Edge for its innovative deep blue sapphire dial, which is considered superior to other transparent dial executions, and its slim, ergonomic 42mm case. The lumed rubber strap is also a frequently highlighted feature, contributing to the watch's homogeneous luminosity and "damn cool" aesthetic. The watch is noted for offering incredible value, with a Sellita SW300-1 movement providing a 56-hour power reserve and 60ATM water resistance. However, one owner reported the sapphire dial cracked from the inside during regular use, and the brand denied warranty repair for this issue. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Christopher Ward C60 Sapphire Edge highly for its striking dial execution and innovative features at its price point.
