What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CIGA Design EVEREST SUMMIT

The CIGA Design EVEREST SUMMIT features a 45mm Grade-5 titanium case with alternating brushed and polished finishes and crisp bezel tolerances. Its dial is crafted from processed Everest bedrock, showcasing a raised relief filled with Super-LumiNova C1, complemented by ice-axe-shaped hands also treated with Super-LumiNova. The manual-winding central tourbillon movement provides a 120-hour power reserve. On balance, reviewers highlight the unique Everest bedrock dial and ice-axe hands as distinctive design elements of the CIGA Design EVEREST SUMMIT.

CIGA Design HUNTER

The CIGA Design HUNTER is widely seen as a visually impressive skeleton watch that offers an expensive aesthetic for its price. Owners find the CIGA Design HUNTER weighty but fun, and reviewers highlight its well-executed skeletonization and excellent case integration. However, legibility is a common concern, with one owner noting minimal anti-reflective coating and another pointing out the hands' lume application is lacking. The movement is described as loud by one reviewer, and a significant durability issue was reported by an owner whose watch stopped ticking within a day. The CIGA Design HUNTER features a Grade 5 titanium case with crisp finishing. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the CIGA Design HUNTER for its striking skeletonized design and premium case finishing at an accessible price point, though concerns exist regarding legibility and movement noise.

From video reviewers

The CIGA Design HUNTER's unique layered case with an industrial skeleton aesthetic gives it a futuristic look. A notable weakness is the integrated stainless steel H-link bracelet's noticeable rattle, which may be a drawback for some buyers. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering the custom, in-house movement impressive at the price point, while another suggests the price is higher than some competitors without a clear justification.
