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 CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE DRAGON

The CIGA Design TOURBILLON CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE DRAGON is noted for its striking, luxe design and unique materials, featuring a mirror-polished black agate case and a "Super Black" dial with a dragon-shaped tourbillon cage. Owners highlight the golden dragon's steady rotation and the way the black dial makes diamond hands and the tourbillon stand out. However, reviewers point out uneven gem-setting and a limited 30-meter water resistance. Some community members note inconsistent brand lettering quality and find the case design comparable to an Apple Watch. The CIGA Design TOURBILLON CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE DRAGON is a compelling conversation piece, with owners valuing its unique aesthetic and the tourbillon's visual appeal despite some finishing inconsistencies.

Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH

The Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH is praised for its well-made construction and vintage-inspired aesthetic, featuring a 37mm case, a balanced three-register dial, and a quality bracelet and clasp suitable for daily wear. It includes a manual-wind Sellita SW510M movement with a 63-hour power reserve and offers 100 meters of water resistance in a thin package. Reviewers note a unique grooved bi-directional bezel, which is described as an atypical but potentially divisive choice for a chronograph. On balance, reviewers find the Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH to be a well-made watch that successfully blends vintage charm with contemporary design.

From video reviewers

The Lorca Model No.2 Chronograph features a notable guilloché bezel that adds vintage flair to its design. The watch is powered by a Swiss Sellita SW510M manual movement, offering 63 hours of power reserve. A potential drawback is the relatively small 37mm size.
