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.

Fortis Flieger F-41 Werk 7

The Fortis Flieger is widely praised for its robust build quality, superb readability, and excellent fit and finish, with reviewers highlighting the utilitarian dial and Brixtrack markers. Some find the 39mm case wears large due to its 50mm lug-to-lug span, while others note the 41mm versions offer better proportions. The Werk 7 movement provides a 70-hour power reserve, though one review mentions the UW-30 movement in a 39mm model has a 38-hour power reserve. On balance, reviewers rate the Fortis Flieger highly for its practical design and solid construction at its price point.
