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 C63 Sealander Rocks

The Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Rocks is praised for its exceptional wearability and versatile design, with its 36mm case noted as fitting well on smaller wrists. Owners highlight the unique gloss dial and refined indices as particularly special, contributing to a quality that exceeds its price point. One owner reported the crown movement was less smooth than higher-end options, and the Sellita SW200 movement's rotor can be a bit loud. The Consort bracelet is noted as lighter and more conforming than the Bader, though some prefer the Bader for robustness. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Christopher Ward C63 Sealander Rocks highly for its comfortable wearability and refined dial aesthetics at its price.
