What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Ikepod Kaws

Owners are divided on the Ikepod Kaws, with some finding its design akin to a toy watch and questioning its artistic merit, while others appreciate it specifically as a Kaws collaboration, though some still feel the execution could be improved. One owner describes the watch as having a meaningless collaboration and poor execution, looking like a toy and being terrible, while another finds the Kaws aesthetic worse on a watch. On balance, the consensus among owners is that the Ikepod Kaws is a polarizing piece, with its appeal largely dependent on individual appreciation for the Kaws artistic style.

CIGA Design SKELETON

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design SKELETON for its value and willingness to challenge established brands, with some surprised by its quality. One owner reports their CIGA Design Series Z in Black DLC has been perfect for over four years, keeping good time and looking neat. However, some find the skeletonized movement's visibility obscured by reflections due to the lack of anti-reflective coating on the crystal. One owner reported their CIGA Design Z Series Skeleton broke after three months with no customer service response. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design SKELETON highly for its surprising quality and value proposition.
