What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC Cabot Sea Falcon Watch

The CWC Cabot Sea Falcon Watch is praised for its vintage appeal, enhanced by a domed sapphire crystal and a brushed/satin case finish. Owners find the 41mm size and thinness contribute to good wearability, even on a 7-inch wrist. Some debate exists regarding its value proposition at over $800 for a quartz movement, though others defend it as a low-production, collectible Swiss-made item. Overall, owners value the CWC Cabot Sea Falcon Watch for its refined finishing and wearability, with some appreciating its collectible status beyond its price point.

CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch for its legible, uncluttered dial, excellent Super-LumiNova lume, and robust build quality, noting its comfortable 12mm thickness and durable PVD coating. The bezel action is described as having zero back play, and the fixed lugs are appreciated for easy strap changes. One owner reported the lume is readable throughout the night, while another flagged a faulty mechanism requiring replacement and poor retailer customer service. The £700 price is considered high by some compared to similar quartz divers, leading to questions about its value. Overall, owners rate the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch highly for its bombproof, toolish design and practical aesthetics.
