Reviews

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

Alkin Watches Model Two

Owners praise the Alkin Watches Model Two for its exceptional dial legibility and minimalist dive watch design. The watch is considered a decent value proposition, featuring a sapphire crystal and the Miyota 9039 automatic movement, with pre-orders priced at £325. Overall, owners rate the Alkin Watches Model Two highly for its clear dial and value at the price point.

From video reviewers

The watch features extreme lume and a reliable Miyota 9039 movement. Reviewers noted disagreement on the utility of the internal bi-directional bezel for quick timing compared to a standard external bezel.

IWC Schaffhausen Aquatimer Automatic

Owners widely praise the IWC Schaffhausen Iw328801 Aquatimer Automatic as a beautiful, solid, and hard-wearing watch with great lume and a unique, functional bezel. Some owners find the 42mm case chunky and note that non-removable bars limit strap options, while one reviewer suggests the utilitarian and angular look, combined with a non-tapering bracelet and substantial weight, indicates a need for refinement. The movement is an automatic 32111 caliber with a 120-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the IWC Schaffhausen Iw328801 Aquatimer Automatic well for its robust build and functional bezel system.
