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.

Boldr Rally

Owners widely praise the Boldr Rally's compact 38mm titanium case and excellent value under A$500. The VK64 mecaquartz movement has proven reliable for years, and the sapphire crystal is a welcome feature. Some owners find the dial busy and difficult to read, particularly the black hands against the black subdial, and note the bead-blasted titanium case can be a scratch magnet. The default straps have been described as boring or not holding up to daily wear. Overall, owners rate the Boldr Rally highly for its robust titanium construction and excellent value, despite some legibility concerns.

From video reviewers

The 38mm titanium case with a 44mm lug-to-lug measurement provides a comfortable and compact fit. The 200m water resistance is noted as robust for a chronograph. The 14mm thickness was mentioned as potentially substantial for the watch's size.
