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.

Vaer DS2 Meridian Quartz

The Vaer DS2 Meridian Quartz is lauded for its wearability, with reviewers and owners consistently praising its 39mm case size as a perfect fit, noting its thinness at 10.4mm. The watch features a satisfying 120-click coin-edge bezel with minimal back play and comes with two straps for $239, powered by a Miyota GM12 quartz movement offering a three-year battery life. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Vaer DS2 Meridian Quartz highly for its comfortable wearability and accessible price point.
