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.

Venezianico Nereide Corallo

Owners widely praise the Venezianico Nereide Timascus for its beautiful design, authentic material, and unique iridescent colors. One owner reports a bezel to indices alignment issue on the Aureo model. Some find the 1075€ price point for the limited edition Timascus too high, and wish for a 39mm option. Overall, owners rate the Venezianico Nereide highly for its striking aesthetic and material uniqueness, despite some price and sizing concerns.
