Owners widely praise the Cincinnati Watch Company Rico the Porcupine for its excellent accuracy, with figures ranging from -2 seconds per day to highly accurate, and its great power reserve and lume. The fit and finish are considered on par with or superior to competitors, and the retro designs, particularly the grainy black dial with X1 C3 luminova, are a strong point. Some owners find the manual wind crown too small and difficult to operate, and the 38mm case size is considered too small by some, leading to a split opinion on its wearability. On balance, owners rate the Cincinnati Watch Company Rico the Porcupine highly for its retro design and excellent build quality at its price point.
