What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC RN Automatic Divers Watch Mk.2

Owners widely praise the CWC RN Diver for its build quality, comfortable wearability, and classic design with desirable brand heritage, suitable for diving. Some owners consider it a favorite, appreciating its case wear and aging tritium as a classic replacement for previous military issue watches. However, a common complaint across multiple sources is the fixed spring bars, which limit strap options, and some find the watch overpriced for its features, particularly when compared to other military-style watches or when noting specific branding text. One owner wishes CWC offered a smaller diver size. On balance, owners rate the CWC RN Diver highly for its utilitarian capabilities and historical connection, despite concerns about strap versatility and value.

Farer TONNEAU

Owners widely praise the Farer TONNEAU's vibrant dial colors, with the green and electric blue versions both noted as particularly attractive, often paired with the tan leather strap. Reviewers and owners alike highlight its impressive 100m water resistance. The movement's color-matched rotor is a appreciated detail. However, opinions on the case design are split; some find it relatively thin and well-executed, while others criticize its soft silhouette, wide bezel, and clumsy proportions. The $1,250 price is noted. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Farer TONNEAU's striking dial colors and robust water resistance, though the case design elicits mixed reactions.
