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.

Vaer Calendar Field

Owners widely praise the Vaer Calendar Field for its excellent value, citing its clean WWII-inspired dial, thin 8.5mm to 9.5mm case, sapphire crystal, and 100m water resistance. The dial and hand design are consistently highlighted as phenomenal, with case finishing described as next-level for the price, featuring nice brushing. Some owners note the second hand does not perfectly align with markers, and the stock silicone strap attracts lint. One owner found the lume only serviceable and wished the date window was brighter. On balance, owners rate the Vaer Calendar Field highly for its exceptional dial design and case finishing at its price point.
