Reviews

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

CIGA Design Gorilla

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design GORILLA for its cool skeleton design and strong wrist presence, with some finding it a reasonable price for a high-end feel and others calling it the coolest skeleton watch available. One owner notes the use of Gorilla glass for scratch resistance. However, a reviewer flags that legibility can be challenging and the lume is weak, while rotor noise is noticeable, typical for a budget Chinese watch. Several owners report their CIGA Design Great Ape watch stopped working within a few months, with the company being unresponsive to their repair inquiries. Overall, owners are split on the CIGA Design GORILLA's aesthetics, but many appreciate its unique design and perceived value despite some durability and customer service concerns.

CIGA Design EDGE

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design EDGE for its stunning looks, finishing, and book-style packaging, making it a versatile everyday and business-casual watch that wears well and is surprisingly light. Some owners find the 3 ATM water resistance concerning for daily wear, and there are concerns regarding the robustness and longevity of the movement, with quality noted as potentially irregular. The included straps may be too small for some wrists, and aftermarket options are recommended to better suit the watch's modern aesthetic. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design EDGE highly for its design-forward skeleton aesthetic and value, despite some concerns about movement longevity and strap sizing.
