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 Super Compressor Elite

The Christopher Ward C65 Super Compressor Elite is praised for its well-made, refined, and attractively finished Super Compressor case, featuring a blue gradient dial with decompression scales and an internal bezel operated by the 2 o'clock crown. Reviewers note the COSC-certified Sellita SW300-1 movement offers a 56-hour power reserve. However, the bracelet's end link finishing does not match the lugs, and the pin-and-collar sizing system is criticized for difficulty. One reviewer calls the 150-meter water resistance a party trick and dislikes the logo and trident on the seconds hand. Overall, reviewers find the Christopher Ward C65 Super Compressor Elite to be a refined and attractively finished watch, despite some criticisms regarding bracelet finishing and water resistance.

MKII Project 300

Owners widely praise the MKII Project 300 for its balanced aesthetic, with one owner noting its lume "glows like a torch." Reviewers highlight its design as a dive watch inspired by the Omega Seamaster 300, emphasizing high legibility with a bold yet balanced appearance. One owner found the 41.25mm case fit their wrist perfectly. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the MKII Project 300 highly for its striking lume and well-proportioned dive watch design.
