What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Cincinnati Watch Company P-40 A-11 Pilot Black Automatic

Owners widely praise the Cincinnati Watch Company P-40 A-11 Pilot Black Automatic for its sharp finishing, textured pearlescent dial, and excellent lume. The simple, understated design and comfortable 38mm size are also frequently highlighted. Some owners note the bracelet lacks quick micro-adjustments and the quick-release spring bars can dig into the wrist. One owner found the lume blocks potentially thinner and the font on larger numbers less desirable than a standard typeface, though the seconds hand was considered a success. Overall, owners highly recommend the Cincinnati Watch Company P-40 A-11 Pilot Black Automatic for its great craftsmanship and value.

CIGA Design LEGEND OF SERPENT

The CIGA Design LEGEND OF SERPENT features an onyx case and a unique dial design with a gold snake indicating hours and minutes. Reviewers note the CD-04-S automatic movement has a 41-hour power reserve and the watch is water-resistant to 30 meters. The silver version uses a 925 silver snake and a CD-04-E movement, while the gold version features an 18K gold snake and the CD-04-S movement. On balance, reviewers highlight the LEGEND OF SERPENT's distinctive dial and case design as its primary appeal.

From video reviewers

The unique case design and 18k gold serpent hand are notable features of the CIGA Design LEGEND OF SERPENT. The watch's movement accuracy is also a strength, as it shares its movement with the award-winning Blue Planet titanium predecessor.
