What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton

The Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton is noted for its 40mm steel case, sapphire crystal, and 150m water resistance. One owner reports strong performance from the TMI NH70 movement at -3 seconds per day, with very nice lume. On balance, owners find the Spinnaker Croft Mid-Size Skeleton to be a pretty nice option, particularly for its movement performance and lume.

Tissot Desir

The Tissot Desir is praised for its slim profile, mother of pearl dial, and understated design, making it an elegant and versatile dress watch. One owner finds the Tissot Desir a lovely watch. However, the border of the face is a glitter strip, not pavé stones as some might assume. On balance, owners rate the Tissot Desir highly for its elegant and versatile dress watch qualities.
