What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Echo/Neutra Averau Ceramic 3H

The Echo/Neutra Averau Ceramic 3H is widely praised for its full lume dial and accessible ceramic and titanium construction. Owners appreciate the quality feel of the bracelet and the reliable Sellita SW200-1 movement, with one noting excellent underwater water resistance. Despite some owners finding the 51.5mm lug-to-lug measurement too large for smaller wrists, another found the 13mm thickness did not feel bulky. There is a split opinion on the double index at 12 o'clock, and one owner reports a loud rotor. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Echo/Neutra Averau Ceramic 3H highly for its striking full lume dial and innovative material construction at its price point.

CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch for its legible, uncluttered dial, excellent Super-LumiNova lume, and robust build quality, noting its comfortable 12mm thickness and durable PVD coating. The bezel action is described as having zero back play, and the fixed lugs are appreciated for easy strap changes. One owner reported the lume is readable throughout the night, while another flagged a faulty mechanism requiring replacement and poor retailer customer service. The £700 price is considered high by some compared to similar quartz divers, leading to questions about its value. Overall, owners rate the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch highly for its bombproof, toolish design and practical aesthetics.
