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.

Wolbrook Skindiver WT Automatic

Owners widely praise the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Automatic for its attractive retro aesthetic, comfortable wearability, and good value, with many highlighting its striking green dial, box sapphire crystal, and well-executed Beads of Rice bracelet. Some reviewers note the Miyota 8315 movement is adjusted to ±15 seconds per day, and one owner found the steel bracelet's finishing did not match the watch as well as the rubber straps. A minority of owners express disappointment with the lume, bezel wobble, and a perceived lack of finishing refinement, with one reviewer ultimately not recommending the watch. Overall, owners rate the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Automatic highly for its vintage charm and comfortable bracelet at the price point.
