The Bremont Supermarine Full Ceramic Deep Blue Nato Strap – Bremont Watch Company is praised for its scratch-resistant, lightweight 43mm ceramic and titanium case with a premium feel and durability. Reviewers note its cold, dark aesthetic inspired by ocean and ice, featuring a black wave-pattern dial with blue-emitting lume. Owners appreciate Bremont's blend of clean design with rugged straps and the case design's hardened steel. However, one owner dislikes the pictured NATO strap, comparing its aviation theme unfavorably to other brands, and another owner finds Bremont's current pricing too high. Ceramic's propensity to shatter is noted as a potential downside. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Bremont Supermarine Full Ceramic Deep Blue Nato Strap – Bremont Watch Company for its durable and distinctive full ceramic case construction.
Owners widely praise the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch for its faithful homage to the original, with specific call-outs for the dial markings, vintage logo, and luminous acrylic bezel. Reviewers and owners alike appreciate the Monnin-style case, which is noted for wearing beautifully, and the matte black dial with legible hands. Accuracy is reported as excellent, with one owner noting under +2 seconds per day. The fixed lugs are seen by some as a drawback, though others consider them a positive feature for a tool watch. The "faux patina" lume receives mixed reactions, with some finding it too gold and glossy, while others favor it. The polished case finish is also noted as unusual for a military watch. Some owners question the value proposition at its price point, citing the ETA movement, though others see it as a strong alternative to more expensive options.
