Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners praise the Citizen BM7620-83M for its 38mm case size and finishing, with one owner noting its 9.7mm thickness and crisp white dial. It is considered a great everyday wear and suitable for travel, available for around $165 shipped. Some owners dislike the stock bracelet and note the lack of a sapphire crystal. Overall, owners rate the Citizen BM7620-83M highly for its wearability and value as an entry-level quartz.
Owners widely report the Knot TS2-36TI offers solid quality and a clean design, with reviewers noting its impressive build and detail. The watch is praised for its versatility, suitable for both casual and formal wear, and its light weight contributes to comfortable wearability, especially with the soft, ready-to-wear leather strap. One owner feels the lugs are a bit thick, suggesting this design choice compromises the watch's proportions. The ivory dial is noted to be lighter than pictured. On balance, owners rate the Knot TS2-36TI highly for its sophisticated design and quality finishing at the price point.
