Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners praise the Edox SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic for its vintage-inspired design and 38mm case size, appealing to those seeking smaller watches. The build quality is considered solid, with reviewers noting the domed sapphire crystal adds charm, though it can cause reflections and contributes to a 13.7mm thickness. The Caliber 80 (SW 200) automatic movement is appreciated, but its 38-hour power reserve is flagged as a drawback by some. Owners are split on sizing, with some wishing for options between 38mm and 42mm. Overall, owners and reviewers view the Edox SkyDiver 38 Date Automatic positively for its retro dimensions and build quality at its price point.
Owners widely praise the Thorn Watchdives WD007ST 39mm NTTD Dive Watch for its excellent finishing and comfortable, lightweight wearability, with many calling it a favorite. The 39mm case is noted for having no sharp edges and being unnoticeably thin. Some owners report the case is well-detailed and machined, and the dial, bezel, and hands are well-finished. One owner found the screw-down crown's functionality to be poor, with the crown and pushers sticking out too much. The titanium bracelet is described by one owner as poor, while another recommends a titanium mesh Milanese bracelet. Overall, owners rate the Thorn Watchdives WD007ST 39mm NTTD Dive Watch highly for its impressive finishing and comfortable wear at its price point.
