What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

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.

Jack Mason Canton Salt

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Jack Mason Canton Salt for its high-quality finishing, textured dials, and the inclusion of the La Joux-Perret G100 automatic movement. The 39mm case is noted for its slim profile and comfortable wearability, with some specifically highlighting the versatility of the white dial and the attractive green and white variants. However, some owners find the case proportions stubby and the design uninspired, while others report issues with the clasp's micro-adjustment system and overly tight bracelet screws. Accuracy figures range from ±7 seconds per day, and the movement offers a 68-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Jack Mason Canton Salt highly for its impressive finishing and value, particularly appreciating the well-executed case and bracelet.
