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.

Sugess Seestern S456 GMT

Owners widely praise the Sugess Seestern S456 GMT for its excellent case finishing, deep blue sunburst dial, and crisp indices, with one owner rating the overall fit and finish 9.5 out of 10. The watch is noted for its legibility, strong lume that lasts about 4 hours, and accurate timekeeping around -4 seconds per day, with easy GMT hand adjustment. Some owners report issues with a loose or friction-based unidirectional bezel, while others find theirs tight and prefer a bidirectional GMT bezel. The sapphire crystal is described as clear and flat by some, but others find it very reflective with AR coating that could be improved. Sizing is generally considered good at 39mm with a 46mm lug-to-lug and 12mm thickness, though one owner expresses concern about its 49mm lug-to-lug and 41mm bezel diameter. Overall, owners rate the Sugess Seestern S456 GMT highly for its impressive finishing and dial at its price point.
