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 TOURBILLON

The CIGA Design TOURBILLON is praised for its avant-garde design, well-finished titanium case, and the spectacle of its in-house tourbillon movement, offering a unique entry into this complication at a relatively accessible price point. Owners and reviewers highlight the visual engagement provided by flame-blued titanium parts and guilloche casebacks, with some noting the wearability of the 45mm titanium case due to its 11.65mm thickness and updated strap design. However, movement performance is a point of contention, with one owner reporting degraded accuracy as the power reserve depletes and a lack of tactile feedback during winding, hacking, or a power reserve indicator. Readability can be challenging due to dark dials and hands that can be difficult to see, and water resistance is limited to 30 meters.

Brew Super Metric

Owners widely praise the Brew Super Metric's unique, asymmetrical, and colorful 70s-inspired design, with many appreciating its finishing and dial details for the price. Some owners find the integrated bracelet can be a hair-puller, and the watch wears larger than its 36mm dimensions due to the square case and bracelet. The lume is noted as weak, and some find the dial graphics busy, though others love the colorful, essence-keeping 2.0 design. On balance, owners rate the Brew Super Metric highly for its distinctive style and value, with many finding it a fun and comfortable daily wearer.

From video reviewers

The Brew Super Metric's Meca-Quartz Chrono functionality is one of the best the reviewer has seen. The watch's unique design is a key part of its charm. The Seiko meca-quartz caliber contributes to its value for the price. The lume could be improved, as it's not as bright as some other watches in its class. The price may not be the cheapest option in its class.
