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.

Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton

The Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton is noted for its skeletonized dial and the use of BGW9 and C3 Super-LumiNova for legibility. It is powered by a manual-wind ETA 6498 movement, offering a 44-hour power reserve. On balance, the Zelos Skyraider 40 Skeleton is seen as a cool-looking option, though availability is a factor.
