What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CIGA Design SKELETON

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design SKELETON for its value and willingness to challenge established brands, with some surprised by its quality. One owner reports their CIGA Design Series Z in Black DLC has been perfect for over four years, keeping good time and looking neat. However, some find the skeletonized movement's visibility obscured by reflections due to the lack of anti-reflective coating on the crystal. One owner reported their CIGA Design Z Series Skeleton broke after three months with no customer service response. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design SKELETON highly for its surprising quality and value proposition.

Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph

Owners widely report a split on build quality, with some finding the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph's construction unimpressive due to issues like a poorly seated bezel and crooked indices, while others praise its robustness and aesthetic appeal. The unique dial features character hands and glowing eyes serving as subdials and a 24-hour indicator, though the chronograph function is limited to 60 minutes. On balance, the Spinnaker Fleuss Mechanical Chronograph elicits divided opinions on its build quality, with its artistic dial design being a notable, albeit polarizing, feature.

From video reviewers

The Spinnaker Googly Black's notable strength is its reported water-resistance of 300 fathoms or 550 metres. A weakness of this watch is its lume brightness, which is somewhat lacking. Reviewers disagree on the watch's ideal size, with one reviewer noting its slimmed-down design and the other mentioning its overall size and 26+ millimeter thickness.
