Reviews

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

IWC Schaffhausen Iw3716 Portugieser Chronograph

Owners widely praise the IWC Schaffhausen Iw3716 Portugieser Chronograph for its legible and handsome design, with specific appreciation for the contrasting blue subdials on a white dial, often referred to as the "Blue Panda." The comfortable blue rubber strap is noted as versatile, though some suggest a leather strap for formal settings. The in-house automatic Calibre 69355 movement is visible through the display caseback, and its column-wheel chronograph actuation is described as crisp and smooth. One owner reported the watch arriving DOA and found damaged parts during attempted repairs, while another noted that the chronograph function should be used sparingly to avoid issues. The 30m water resistance is considered a minor drawback by reviewers. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the IWC Schaffhausen Iw3716 Portugieser Chronograph highly for its attractive aesthetic and refined movement at its price point.

Sugess MoonPhase Master Chronograph SU1908

Owners widely praise the Sugess MoonPhase Master Chronograph SU1908 for its impressive aesthetics and build quality, with one owner calling it a quality piece and another stating it set high expectations. The watch is considered a great value, with owners reporting prices around $114-$120. Accuracy averages -6 seconds per day, attributed to Sugess's regulation. The ST19xx movement is described as snappy, though chronograph pushers are initially stiff. One owner notes the moon display is unflawed. The push-pull crown only operates hand-winding and time setting, and moonphase/date adjusters require a tool. One owner reported an eccentric rotating chronograph start issue, while another had the minute register hand detach after a drop, which was easily fixed by a watchmaker. The watch is described as thick and wearability depends on the strap. Overall, owners rate the Sugess MoonPhase Master Chronograph SU1908 highly for its impressive aesthetics and value at the price point.
