Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Phantom CeramicvsCIGA Design Eastern Jade

The Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Phantom Ceramic features black lume on its hands and indexes, which reviewers note is less bright than standard lume. The watch has a 41mm black ceramic case with brushed and polished surfaces and a grey-tinted sapphire dial that reveals the movement. It is powered by an automatic movement with a 54-hour power reserve. Overall, reviewers describe the Bell & Ross BR-05 Skeleton Phantom Ceramic as a stealthy and modern take on the BR-05 line, highlighting its monochromatic aesthetic and intricate dial.

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design EASTERN JADE as a compelling, avant-garde statement piece at its $599 price point, highlighting its proprietary ceramic jade case for its weighty, cool feel and the skeletonized dial's surprising legibility with varied finishing. However, reviewers note the plain caseback and 30-meter water resistance as downsides, and the CD-02 automatic movement's accuracy is rated conservatively at -15/+30 seconds per day. One owner found the included leather strap subpar, though another reported their watch worked for over a year of daily use. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the CIGA Design EASTERN JADE a compelling avant-garde design for its price, with the ceramic jade case and legible skeletonized dial being major draws.
