Redux COURG: Type-AvsKUOE ROYAL SMITH 90-010
The numbers, the dial colors, the calibers — laid out so you can stop flipping between tabs.
Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Owners report a matte black dial with vintage numerals and RDXb1 blue lume on the 39mm titanium case. One owner notes deep corrosion on the case back, while another flags the RDXb1 lume as brilliant but short-lived and describes the crown stem as flimsy with a unidirectional bezel that has slight play. Overall, owners find the Redux COURG: Type-A to be a rugged, utilitarian tool watch, though some specific components like the lume and bezel action draw mixed commentary.
Owners praise the KUOE ROYAL SMITH's elegant 37mm size, symmetrical bicompax layout, and crisp chronograph pushers with a swift reset. The salmon dial is described as copper-toned with highly polished, legible Breguet numerals. Some owners find the 13mm thickness and 43mm lug-to-lug wearable, while others note the 14.3mm thickness detracts from wearability. The TMI NE86A movement has a claimed 45-hour power reserve and accuracy ranging from +25/-15 seconds per day. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the KUOE ROYAL SMITH for its retro charm and enjoyable chronograph operation, despite some reservations about its thickness.
The Miyota Cal. 9122 automatic movement with triple calendar complications is a key strength. The watch features a vertical brushed ivory dial with black subdials and Breguet numerals. Reviewers did not reach a consensus on any weaknesses or points of disagreement.
