What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Venezianico Arsenale Bizantino

The Venezianico Arsenale Bizantino is widely praised for its unique Byzantine art engraving across the case and bracelet, and its elegant gray fumé dial. Owners find it extremely comfortable and appreciate its solid build quality for the €900 price point. However, reviewers note that the bracelet screws are unattractive up close, and the seconds hand can be difficult to see in certain lighting conditions, impacting legibility. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Venezianico Arsenale Bizantino highly for its distinctive artistic design and comfortable wearability.

CIGA Design SKELETON

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design SKELETON for its value and willingness to challenge established brands, with some surprised by its quality. One owner reports their CIGA Design Series Z in Black DLC has been perfect for over four years, keeping good time and looking neat. However, some find the skeletonized movement's visibility obscured by reflections due to the lack of anti-reflective coating on the crystal. One owner reported their CIGA Design Z Series Skeleton broke after three months with no customer service response. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design SKELETON highly for its surprising quality and value proposition.
