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 FALCON

The CIGA Design FALCON is noted for its distinctive skeletonized dial and slim 11mm steel case. Owners highlight the unique back-to-front skeleton design, allowing the Caliber CD-02 movement to be viewed from all angles, and the comfortable H-linked bracelet. Reviewers praise its well-executed honeycomb dial and 36mm case size, though some find the 3-6-9 numeral layout too derivative. It is powered by the Miyota 90S5 caliber and offers 100m water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the CIGA Design FALCON for its innovative skeletonization and vintage-inspired design at its price point.

Orient Star Modern Skeleton

The Orient Star Modern Skeleton's 70-hour power reserve and silicon escape wheel are highlighted as key strengths. No shared weaknesses were identified across the reviews.
