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.

Pagani Design PD-YS008

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-YS008 for its stunning, color-shifting grey dial and 3D-effect hands, with many calling it their favorite model from the brand due to its beautiful case design, unique lugs, and good finishing. The watch is powered by a Seiko VK63 mecha-quartz movement and is noted for its crisp, clicky pushers. Some owners find the 41mm case size and 12mm thickness very wearable, fitting well on various straps. However, multiple owners and reviewers flag the included leather strap as poor quality and very stiff. Specific criticisms include a recessed, non-color-matched date wheel, a potentially loose crown that doesn't screw down, and issues with the minute hand jumping backward when setting the time. One owner also noted minor gold plating flaws and a lack of anti-reflective coating. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-YS008 highly for its dial and case design, offering excellent value despite noted strap quality issues.
