AVI-8 Sabiha Gökçen 24-Hour Automatic Limited EditionvsChristopher Ward C65 Super Compressor Elite

Owners are divided on the AVI-8 Sabiha Gökçen 24-Hour Automatic Limited Edition's design, with one calling it "horrible" and not a collector's item, while another finds it more meticulous than previous models, though still too busy and large. The watch features an NH34 movement with a 24-hour GMT function, measuring 42mm in diameter and 16mm thick. Owners also question the high resale prices. On balance, owners express significant reservations about the design and value proposition of the AVI-8 Sabiha Gökçen 24-Hour Automatic Limited Edition.

The Christopher Ward C65 Super Compressor Elite is praised for its well-made, refined, and attractively finished Super Compressor case, featuring a blue gradient dial with decompression scales and an internal bezel operated by the 2 o'clock crown. Reviewers note the COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 movement offers a 56-hour power reserve. However, the bracelet's end link finishing does not match the lugs, and the pin-and-collar sizing system is criticized for difficulty. One reviewer calls the 150-meter water resistance a party trick and dislikes the logo and trident on the seconds hand. Overall, reviewers find the Christopher Ward C65 Super Compressor Elite to be a refined and attractively finished watch, despite some criticisms regarding bracelet finishing and water resistance.
