What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT for its 36mm size and 11.2mm thinness, vintage-inspired design, and crisp finishing. The champagne sunburst dial and integrated bracelet are frequently highlighted as attractive elements. Some owners note the bezel font as a detractor, and a reviewer points out the lume is insignificant. The watch uses a caller GMT movement, and one owner finds the small crown impractical to manipulate. Accuracy is reported as within +/- 4 seconds per day, and it features 20 ATM water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Lorca MODEL No.1 GMT for its refined design and compact dimensions, though some question its value proposition for an emerging brand.

CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special for its rugged build and military heritage, with some finding its quality comparable to higher-end watches. A reviewer notes the 41mm PVD-coated watch features a bright SuperLuminova dial. One owner reports a bit of play in the 60-click bezel, present from new, alongside minor wear on the PVD coating and bezel insert. On balance, owners rate the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special highly for its rugged build and military heritage, despite some questioning its value at £700.
