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.

CWC 6BB-WR

The CWC 6BB-WR is widely praised for its legible matte black dial, strong lume, and crisp chronograph operation. Owners and reviewers note its military heritage and rugged, confidence-inspiring build with a screw-down crown and pushers. The Sellita SW510 BH b automatic movement kept time within COSC range in testing. However, its 14.9mm thickness and 80g weight make it wear large, and the cam-lever movement lacks the satisfying click of a column wheel. Fixed bars limit strap options. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the CWC 6BB-WR highly for its legible dial and robust pilot chronograph design at its price point.
