What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch for its legible, uncluttered dial, excellent Super-LumiNova lume, and robust build quality, noting its comfortable 12mm thickness and durable PVD coating. The bezel action is described as having zero back play, and the fixed lugs are appreciated for easy strap changes. One owner reported the lume is readable throughout the night, while another flagged a faulty mechanism requiring replacement and poor retailer customer service. The £700 price is considered high by some compared to similar quartz divers, leading to questions about its value. Overall, owners rate the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch highly for its bombproof, toolish design and practical aesthetics.

Maen Manhattan 三七

Owners are 100% satisfied with the Maen Manhattan 三七's looks and finishing quality, finding it super comfortable. Reviewers praise its modest dimensions, appealing case profile, and dial finishing with a vertical Côtes de Genève pattern, though one owner notes the dial color is deceptively different from website images. The Maen Manhattan 三七 features a thin 7.1mm case and 100m water resistance with a screw-down crown, utilizing a manual-wind movement with a two-day power reserve, while another reviewer points to a different movement with an average accuracy deviation of +/- 12 seconds per day and a 40-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Maen Manhattan 三七 highly for its finishing and comfortable wearability at its price point.
