The watch features a quartz movement, a 41mm case, and a pleasant leather strap. However, one owner finds the thin, polished steel hands can be challenging to read in glare. On balance, owners rate the AV86 1815 Chronograph highly for its aesthetic appeal and refined chronograph actuation.

Knot Watches CC-39MRGOW owners widely praise its attractive display and Bauhaus-style design, with one owner noting the cream dial and orange second hand as a particular highlight. The watch is also appreciated for its light weight and affordability, with one owner calling it a well-made, Made in Japan souvenir. However, some owners report issues with the strap and clasp quality, and one experienced poorly executed engraving. The narrow strap width, specifically a non-standard 17.9mm lug width, is a recurring point of contention, preventing the use of standard 18mm straps, and the need to send the watch to Japan for battery changes is seen as an inconvenience. Overall, owners appreciate the Knot Watches CC-39MRGOW for its unique aesthetic and value, despite some reservations about strap quality and servicing.
