What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 Black

Owners widely praise the CWC Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 Black for its brushed chapter ring, precise 120-click bezel, clear sapphire crystal, excellent case finishing, and significantly improved lume. The watch is considered a terrific value with solid construction. Some owners express a preference for a matte finish for a more tool-like appearance, though polished versions offer a dressier look and easier scratch removal. On balance, owners rate the CWC Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2 Black highly for its tool-like features and excellent value.

From video reviewers

The bezel action is smooth. The price has increased due to popularity.

Pagani Design PD-1679

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1679 for its exceptional value, with many citing its impressive finishing and quality for the price, some even comparing it favorably to more expensive timepieces. Specific highlights include the "Tommy" color scheme, a comfortable canvas-look strap with a durable rubber backing and a cool buckle, and a transparent case back. The bezel action is noted as decent, and the C3 lume, while bright, is reported by some to wear off quickly, with others describing it as poor. Some owners dislike the dial numerals and find the watch to be thick or chunky. The second crown is purely decorative. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1679 highly for its outstanding value and attractive design elements at its low price point.
