Reviews

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

Casio EQS-960PB

The Casio EQS-960PB is noted for its design, featuring a steep case taper, sharp bezel corners, and links that some find reminiscent of the PRX, while maintaining a distinctly Casio dial. One owner dislikes the suspension case design, preferring the standard lugs of other models. Overall, owners find the Casio EQS-960PB's design to be a point of discussion, with some appreciating its unique aesthetic and others preferring alternative lug designs.

TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph

Owners widely appreciate the TAG Heuer Formula 1 Chronograph for its F1 branding, chronograph function, and stopwatch capabilities, with some finding it a worthwhile daily wear that wears smaller than its 43mm case. Several owners highlight specific design elements they enjoy, such as double date windows, red accents, and the band expansion feature. However, a significant portion of owners advise against purchasing the quartz version at its price point, viewing it as a shame to spend that much on a quartz movement, though some acknowledge its simplicity and accuracy. Concerns are raised about the durability of certain components, with one owner noting that the black coating on pushers and bezel may wear over time, and another mentioning that stainless steel bands are of poor quality. Additionally, one owner reports that rubber sides on this Formula 1 model are unobtainable from TAG, and repairs are costly.
