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.

Straton Daily Driver

Owners widely praise the Straton Daily Driver for its precise "double panda chrono" aesthetic, featuring a white dial, thin black bezel, and stick indices, with one owner highlighting the AR-coated sapphire crystal and reliable Miyota 6S21 quartz movement. The build quality is described as top-notch, and the watch is sought after for its utility and car-themed design. On balance, owners rate the Straton Daily Driver highly for its distinctive aesthetic and quality construction at its price point.
