What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Orient Multi-Year Calendar

Owners report the Orient Multi-Year Calendar features a complex analog display for tracking days and dates across multiple years, housed in a 45mm stainless steel case with 100m water resistance. Some owners view the watch as a visually appealing novelty, noting that manual adjustment is required for months and that the older 20-year calendar version is difficult to find. One owner observed only light signs of wear on their watch, with minor desk rash on the buckle visible only under magnification. On balance, owners appreciate the unique calendar complication as a visually appealing novelty.

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.
