Reviews

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

Certina DS Super PH500M

Owners widely praise the Certina DS Super PH500M for its retro dive watch aesthetic, good legibility, and value, with many highlighting its striking orange dial and secure bezel lock. The Powermatic 80.611 movement is reported as consistent and accurate, with one owner noting +2/+3 seconds per day performance. The watch is considered tough and offers good specifications for its price. However, some find the 43mm case and 15mm thickness substantial, potentially wearing large on smaller wrists, and one reviewer notes the crystal retaining ring can be a scratch magnet. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Certina DS Super PH500M highly for its vintage-inspired design and excellent value proposition.

Out of Order Diverissimo

Owners and reviewers praise the Out of Order Diverissimo for its spirited design, unique distressed aesthetic, and substantial feel, noting its fun, oil-slick case coloration. The watch is considered to offer solid value and a comfortable wearing experience. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Out of Order Diverissimo highly for its distinctive looks and perceived durability.
