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 Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date

The CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date is widely praised for its exceptional legibility, particularly its dial design and thickly applied Super-LumiNova that remains readable all night. Owners appreciate its robust, toolish, bombproof design and comfortable wearability, with one noting its 11mm thickness and smaller wear size. The PVD finish withstands significant abuse. The Ronda movement is considered to have consistent second-hand movement. Some find its £700 price steep, especially compared to less expensive quartz divers, and fixed spring bars are noted as a drawback. Customer service is also flagged as potentially lacking by some. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date highly for its military aesthetics, legibility, and robust, comfortable tool-watch build.

Ferro Time Master 70

The Ferro Time Master 70 is praised for its distinctive 1970s-inspired polygon case and visually striking silver dial with orange accents and unique lume colors. Owners appreciate the retro design with unique touches, clean dial, and lumed markers, along with the smooth winding of the Miyota 9039 movement. Its 39mm diameter, 10.4mm thickness, and 47mm lug-to-lug dimensions contribute to comfortable wearability, further enhanced by a well-executed faux-single link bracelet featuring a practical on-the-fly micro-adjustment clasp. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Ferro Time Master 70 highly for its retro design and comfortable wearability.
