Sternglas HamburgvsCWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch

The Sternglas Hamburg is widely praised for its Bauhaus-inspired design, good build quality for the price, and attractive finishing, with owners noting a nice polish on the case and an uncluttered, easy-to-read dial. Some find the watch lightweight and its value proposition strong, especially with common discounts. However, opinions on the design are split, with some finding certain variants garish and a departure from strict Bauhaus simplicity, while others appreciate its unique aesthetic. The Miyota 8215 movement's accuracy is reported to range from -20/+40 seconds per day, and one owner noted it is louder than expected. A deep date window recess is also mentioned as making the date difficult to see from an angle. On balance, owners and reviewers find the Sternglas Hamburg a compelling option for its attractive design and value, despite some polarizing aesthetic elements and movement quirks.

The CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is widely praised for its faithful recreation of vintage details, including its dial layout with markers touching the chapter ring and pointed crown guards. Owners and reviewers note its reasonable size and the original minute hand design. However, the lume is a point of contention: some find the "faux patina" tint too gold and glossy, while others specifically criticize the mismatched lume color between hands and hour markers, with the hour marker lume described as overly shiny and convex. On balance, the CWC 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch is highly regarded for its authentic vintage aesthetic and wearability, despite mixed opinions on the lume application.
