What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Bremont MBII

The Bremont MBII is praised for its striking, high-tech pilot's watch aesthetic, reassuring heft, and quality feel, featuring an anti-shock system and customizable barrel. Owners note its condition can be excellent with minor hairlines, and it is presented with all original boxes and papers. A drawback cited is its 38-hour power reserve compared to newer movements. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Bremont MBII affordable and a good representation of the brand.

CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special for its rugged build and military heritage, with some finding its quality comparable to higher-end watches. A reviewer notes the 41mm PVD-coated watch features a bright SuperLuminova dial. One owner reports a bit of play in the 60-click bezel, present from new, alongside minor wear on the PVD coating and bezel insert. On balance, owners rate the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special highly for its rugged build and military heritage, despite some questioning its value at £700.
