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.

Norqain Wild ONE Skeleton Hong Kong Special Edition

The Norqain Wild ONE Skeleton Hong Kong Special Edition is widely praised for its lightweight composite case and comfortable wearability, with reviewers highlighting its robust construction and shock resistance. Owners and reviewers alike appreciate the detailed and deep skeletonized dial, which exposes the COSC-certified Sellita SW200 movement. Some owners find the unique technology justifies the cost, though others question the lume's legibility and the watch's high price point. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Norqain Wild ONE Skeleton Hong Kong Special Edition positively for its innovative case construction and distinctive dial design.
