What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC 1983 RN Divers Quartz Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC 1983 RN Divers Quartz Re-Issue Watch for its historically accurate reproduction, thin profile for a 300m diver, and a second hand that aligns well with indices. Reviewers note its reasonable size on smaller wrists, original dial layout with markers touching the chapter ring, and a broader minute hand. However, criticism is directed at the fixed 20mm bars necessitating specific strap types and the mismatched lume colors between hands and hour markers, with some finding the convex lume on the markers overly shiny. Overall, owners rate the CWC 1983 RN Divers Quartz Re-Issue Watch highly for its accurate vintage aesthetic and wearability.

Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII

The Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII is praised for its refined case, impressive fit and finish, and compact 38mm size, which offers a premium feel with a sharp, legible dial and well-executed applied markers. Reviewers note the sweet winding action and the vintage-inspired brown sunburst dial with dauphine hands and lollipop register pointers. The watch is powered by a manual-wind Sellita SW510Mb movement with a 63-hour power reserve. Accuracy figures vary, with one reviewer reporting +7 seconds per day and another stating a tolerance of +/-15 seconds per day. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII for its refined vintage-inspired design and compact dimensions at its price point.

From video reviewers

The 38mm case size is a key strength for the Maen Skymaster 38 MKIII. Reviewers noted the excellent quality-price ratio for a Swiss-made chronograph.
