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.

Seiko Presage Sharp Edged Series Sharp Edged Series Kabuki-inspired Limited Edition

The Seiko Presage Sharp Edged Series Sharp Edged Series Kabuki-inspired Limited Edition is widely praised for its spectacular, Kabuki-inspired gradient dials featuring a hemp leaf motif and gold-toned accents, with some owners finding the dial and finishing exquisite and superior to watches at higher price points. The bracelet is also noted as being better than entry-level offerings. However, the lume fades quickly, and movement accuracy can vary, with reported figures ranging from +20 seconds per day to losing 5-8 seconds per day. Some reviewers and owners find the price steep for the 6R35 movement, and the Hardlex crystal is considered a potential scratch risk compared to sapphire. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the striking dial and good finishing of the Seiko Presage Sharp Edged Series Sharp Edged Series Kabuki-inspired Limited Edition, despite some concerns regarding movement accuracy and crystal durability.
