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.

Farer 36MM THREE HAND

The Farer 36MM THREE HAND is praised for its vibrant dials, compact 1960s-inspired design with fluid lines and slim bezel, and a 68-hour power reserve from its La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement. Reviewers note the 39mm stainless steel case features polished finishes and brushed lugs, a screwed-down crown, and 100m water resistance. Some models include Super-LumiNova Arabic numerals and applied markers with syringe hands. One reviewer found the included red strap too thick and stiff, and the minute hashes difficult to read. On balance, reviewers highlight the unique dial colors and textures, along with the accessible price point, as key strengths of the Farer 36MM THREE HAND collection.
