What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Farer 36MM THREE HAND

The Farer 36MM THREE HAND is praised for its vibrant dials, compact 1960s-inspired design with fluid lines and slim bezel, and a 68-hour power reserve from its La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement. Reviewers note the 39mm stainless steel case features polished finishes and brushed lugs, a screwed-down crown, and 100m water resistance. Some models include Super-LumiNova Arabic numerals and applied markers with syringe hands. One reviewer found the included red strap too thick and stiff, and the minute hashes difficult to read. On balance, reviewers highlight the unique dial colors and textures, along with the accessible price point, as key strengths of the Farer 36MM THREE HAND collection.

CIGA Design HUNTER

The CIGA Design HUNTER is widely seen as a visually impressive skeleton watch that offers an expensive aesthetic for its price. Owners find the CIGA Design HUNTER weighty but fun, and reviewers highlight its well-executed skeletonization and excellent case integration. However, legibility is a common concern, with one owner noting minimal anti-reflective coating and another pointing out the hands' lume application is lacking. The movement is described as loud by one reviewer, and a significant durability issue was reported by an owner whose watch stopped ticking within a day. The CIGA Design HUNTER features a Grade 5 titanium case with crisp finishing. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the CIGA Design HUNTER for its striking skeletonized design and premium case finishing at an accessible price point, though concerns exist regarding legibility and movement noise.

From video reviewers

The CIGA Design HUNTER's unique layered case with an industrial skeleton aesthetic gives it a futuristic look. A notable weakness is the integrated stainless steel H-link bracelet's noticeable rattle, which may be a drawback for some buyers. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering the custom, in-house movement impressive at the price point, while another suggests the price is higher than some competitors without a clear justification.
