Addiesdive Sub Quartz Watch Diver's 200M (H3-2QZ) owners praise its exceptional value, with many surprised by the quality and finishing at its sub-$50 price point. The ceramic bezel insert is noted for minimal backplay and good alignment, and the BGW9 lume is reported as bright and durable. One owner highlights the well-built bracelet. However, the mineral crystal is prone to scratches, and the bezel rotation is described as loose and tinny. The Mercedes hands are considered underwhelming by one user, and the C3 lume, while great for the price, is not as strong as on other brands. Overall, owners rate the Addiesdive Sub Quartz Watch Diver's 200M (H3-2QZ) highly for its impressive specifications and finishing at an accessible price.
Owners widely praise the Knot Watches SAC-40SSV for its Seiko-like finishing and attractive price point, with many appreciating its light feel and the quality of the strap and deployment buckle, though some find it initially stiff. The 40mm size is a point of contention, with some finding it comfortable and a favorite, while others consider it too large and prefer the 38mm variant. A recurring criticism is the small, awkwardly placed crown, which makes winding difficult. One owner also noted poor engraving and considered the watch to be primarily a fashion piece. Overall, owners rate the Knot Watches SAC-40SSV positively for its finishing and value, despite some reservations about the crown design and sizing.
