What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Sternglas Berlin

The Sternglas Berlin is praised for its stylish Art Deco-inspired design and slim 38mm case, offering good value at $270 for newcomers to watches. One reviewer notes the Miyota GM02 quartz movement is accurate to ±20 seconds per month, but flags the included leather strap as squeaky and suggests an alternative. Overall, owners find the Sternglas Berlin a satisfying purchase for its aesthetic and price point.

CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special for its rugged build and military heritage, with some finding its quality comparable to higher-end watches. A reviewer notes the 41mm PVD-coated watch features a bright SuperLuminova dial. One owner reports a bit of play in the 60-click bezel, present from new, alongside minor wear on the PVD coating and bezel insert. On balance, owners rate the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special highly for its rugged build and military heritage, despite some questioning its value at £700.
