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 CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE HORSE

The CIGA Design CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE HORSE is noted for its striking central tourbillon, DLC-coated titanium case, and 24k gold horse with diamond hands, all offered at a price point under $2,700. One owner reported their watch stopped working after two months, and the company did not respond to inquiries, while another found the leather strap to be subpar. The watch has a 45.5mm size and a 38-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers acknowledge the CIGA Design CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE HORSE as an attention-grabbing showcase of modern Chinese watchmaking, with its standout tourbillon and material execution being key draws despite some reported durability and accessory concerns.

Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph

Owners widely report a split on build quality, with some finding the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph's construction unimpressive due to issues like a poorly seated bezel and crooked indices, while others praise its robustness and aesthetic appeal. The unique dial features character hands and glowing eyes serving as subdials and a 24-hour indicator, though the chronograph function is limited to 60 minutes. On balance, the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph elicits divided opinions on its build quality, with its artistic dial design being a notable, albeit polarizing, feature.

From video reviewers

The Spinnaker Googly Black's notable strength is its reported water-resistance of 300 fathoms or 550 metres. A weakness of this watch is its lume brightness, which is somewhat lacking. Reviewers disagree on the watch's ideal size, with one reviewer noting its slimmed-down design and the other mentioning its overall size and 26+ millimeter thickness.
