What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Christopher Ward C63 Colchester

The Christopher Ward C63 Colchester is praised for its extremely lightweight, 41mm forged carbon case and dial, weighing only 38 grams, and its COSC-certified Sellita SW200 movement. Some owners report the lume lasts all night, while others note the red seconds hand can be difficult to see in low light. The recessed crown is a point of discussion, with one owner finding it difficult to manipulate due to its thinness and another suggesting it may be gimmicky. The watch is offered at $925. Overall, owners appreciate the unique materials and lightweight design of the Christopher Ward C63 Colchester, though some express concerns about the crown functionality and price point.

Ferro Race Master Automatic

Owners widely praise the Ferro Race Master Automatic for its value, with one enthusiast highlighting the British racing green dial, strong lume, beautifully engraved case back, and comfortable 39mm brushed steel case. The transparent movement descriptions are also appreciated. However, one owner reported poor communication and suspected delays regarding a pre-production order. On balance, owners rate the Ferro Race Master Automatic highly for its dial aesthetics and comfortable wearability at its price point.
