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 C65 Sandhurst Series 2

Owners widely praise the Christopher Ward C65 Sandhurst Series 2 for its COSC-certified accuracy and clean British-military aesthetic, with many highlighting its balanced wearability and cool, ultra-legible mid-century design. The gorgeous domed crystal and the MOD badge on the caseback are noted as charming details. Some owners find the 38mm case size potentially too small for larger wrists, while others question its claimed military heritage. The watch is powered by a Sellita SW200 COSC movement with a 38-hour power reserve and features Grade X1 Super-LumiNova on its matte black dial. Overall, the consensus is that the Christopher Ward C65 Sandhurst Series 2 is highly regarded for its character and COSC-certified accuracy.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
