What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

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.

Aevig Thule sportswatch

The Aevig Thule sportswatch is widely praised for its 70s-inspired design, lightweight titanium case with a hardness coating, and comfortable wearability. Owners note the NH34 GMT movement's accurate regulation, often seeing 1-2 seconds fast per day, and appreciate the excellent anti-reflective coating, sapphire crystal, and quick-release bracelet. Some reviewers, however, express a desire for dressier styling and sharper case angles, with one owner pointing out potential irregularities on the skeletonized hour markers. Overall, owners rate the Aevig Thule sportswatch highly for its original design and value.
