What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely report the CWC 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch as very hard-wearing, with good seconds hand alignment and perfect bezel alignment with crisp action. The lume is described as pretty good despite fauxtina, and the watch gains approximately 3 seconds per month. Some owners consider the CWC 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch overpriced, while others appreciate its bombproof, toolish design and military heritage.

Bremont Altitude Chronograph

Owners note faint marks on the case sides and back, with minor wear and creasing on the strap. Reviewers flag the "DANGER EJECTION SEAT" wordmark on the dial as a divisive design choice that disrupts the MB series' usual stark tone, though they praise the improved smoothness and click precision of the Roto Click rotating bezel. On balance, the Bremont Altitude Chronograph elicits mixed reactions, with design elements like the dial text being a point of contention for reviewers.
