Miyota
Miyota's premium automatic caliber positioned as a Japanese alternative to the ETA 2824-2 and Sellita SW200-1. The 9015 adds hacking, hand-winding, and a smoother 28,800 vph beat rate over the budget 8215. Its thinner profile and higher jewel count make it a favorite among microbrands seeking a reliable mid-range movement that punches above its price point.

Owners widely praise the Signum Cuda's distinctive dial options, particularly the Lapis Lazuli and thermally blued meteorite, noting how they play with light. The lume on the bezel and markers is also frequently highlighted as fantastic. However, multiple owners report that the lume on the hands significantly underperforms compared to the rest of the watch, rendering them unreadable in low light. One owner experienced condensation inside the watch despite the crown being screwed in, leading to concerns about build quality, while another owner stated their Cuda has been fine in water. The bezel action was initially stiff for one owner but improved after lubrication. The Signum Cuda is powered by a Miyota 9015 automatic movement and features 200m water resistance with a 42.5mm case. On balance, owners rate the Signum Cuda highly for its unique dial aesthetics and strong bezel/marker lume, despite consistent criticism regarding the hand lume performance.
