What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver

The Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver is a 40mm hand-wind watch with a black dial, acrylic crystal, and FKM rubber strap, powered by a Sellita SW210 manual wind movement. Owners report the watch gained one second per day, and it comes with a QC and timing report. Some find the Desk Diver a unique novelty, though many consider its $1500 price too high. The watch has 0 meters of water resistance, and its vintage case may show small marks. Overall, owners rate the Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver as a unique novelty, with the primary reservation being its high price for its perceived playful nature.

Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz

Owners widely praise the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz for its heritage reissue design, small and thin case, and good looks for the price, with some noting exceptional build quality, tactile pushers, and a substantial feel. However, the quartz movement's ticking smoothness and the 24-hour subdial, which functions as an AM/PM indicator rather than a totalizer, are points of criticism for some, leading to perceptions of it being overpriced. Owners report mixed experiences with quality control, with some noting alignment issues, crooked indices, and dial rotation when pushers are depressed, while others report no such issues. On balance, owners appreciate the Yema Rallygraf Meca-Quartz for its distinctive vintage styling and wearability, despite some concerns regarding quality control and the functionality of its subdial.
