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.

Marloe Watch Company Sceptre S2

Owners widely praise the Marloe Watch Company Sceptre S2's unique design, with particular admiration for its face, bezel, and distinctive orange chapter ring with "+" hour markers. The bracelet's finish and micro-adjustments are noted as well-executed, contributing to a solid feel and versatility for daily wear. However, some enthusiasts find the 42mm diameter wears large due to the expansive dial and thin bezel. Overall, owners rate the Marloe Watch Company Sceptre S2 highly for its striking aesthetics and solid build at its price point.
