Norqain Adventure 40mmvsThorn 40mm NH35A Diver Automatic Watch

The Norqain Adventure 40mm is praised for its solid build and pleasant feel, with reviewers noting the 60-click bezel action as enjoyable despite some minor backplay. Owners express a desire for smaller case sizes within the Adventure line. The movement is the automatic Norqain NN08, offering 200m water resistance and a 40mm case diameter. Overall, owners and reviewers find the Norqain Adventure 40mm to be a well-made sports watch, with the main point of discussion being the availability of smaller case options.

Owners widely praise the Thorn 40mm NH35A Diver Automatic Watch for its impressive case finishing, featuring sharp polished chamfers and nice brushing, along with great lume and excellent wrist presence due to its 40mm case and ideal lug-to-lug measurement. The vintage aesthetic with yellowish hands and old-fashioned dial details is also a highlight, as is the explorer dial. The watch is considered well-made and offered at a great price, with the NH35 movement and 120-click bezel being impressive features. However, some owners note that the dial text on certain models does not match the logo style, and one owner reported the water resistance as 30M splash proof, not 300M. Some owners also report the watch as incredibly fragile. On balance, owners rate the Thorn 40mm NH35A Diver Automatic Watch highly for its finishing, vintage aesthetic, and value at the price point.
