Owners widely praise the case finishing of the Addiesdive U.S. -Addiesdive Dual Crown Captain Willard 6105 Homage AD2093, with some considering it comparable to Seiko. The lume is frequently highlighted as excellent, bright, and long-lasting. The watch is also recognized as a versatile bargain with impressive specifications for its price point, featuring applied indices and a well-aligned cyclops. However, some owners report a stiff crown that makes date adjustments difficult, and one owner experienced a power reserve of only about 12 hours. The bezel insert is noted by one owner to be hollow-sounding, and a mineral crystal is prone to scratches. The bracelet is considered significantly worse than Seiko's by one source, though still good-looking. The water resistance claim of 1000m is questioned by some, though it has been used for dives under 18 meters. On balance, owners and community members rate the Addiesdive U.S.
