Bremont ArgyllevsCWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch

The Bremont U-2 JET is praised for its exceptional accuracy, running between +0 and +1 seconds per day. It features a black DLC-treated steel case with a knurled aluminum mid-section and a smoked sapphire display caseback. The dial incorporates hash marks and Arabic numerals with tinted lume, complemented by heat-blued steel hands. The inner timing ring is bi-directional and operated by a crown at 4:00, which is described as satisfying to use but awkward on the wrist. Overall, owners and reviewers highlight the Bremont U-2 JET's precise timekeeping and distinctive case construction.

Owners widely praise the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch for its faithful homage to vintage military divers, highlighting details like the dial markings, luminous acrylic bezel, vintage logo, and well-proportioned hands. One owner reports accuracy under +2 seconds per day. However, some find the "faux patina" lume too gold and glossy, and the polished case unusual for a military watch. The fixed lugs are noted as a potential drawback for some, though others appreciate them as a tool watch feature. Opinions on the value are split, with some questioning the $2.5k price point due to the ETA movement, while others see it as a strong alternative to more expensive watches. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch well for its vintage aesthetic and tool watch capabilities, despite some reservations about its price and specific execution details.
