Christopher Ward The Twelve 660vsMarathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto

Christopher Ward The Twelve 660 owners widely appreciate its thin 6.6mm case, achieved partly by reducing bezel and caseback diameters, and its well-made construction and value proposition. However, the community is split on the manual wind and lack of a second hand, with some finding these features unnecessary while others enjoy the interaction and thinness they enable. The bracelet's butterfly clasp lacks micro-adjustments, and some find the 30m water resistance limiting. Overall, owners and reviewers rate Christopher Ward The Twelve 660 highly for its innovative thin case design and perceived value, despite differing opinions on its manual-wind-only, no-date configuration.

The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto is praised for its high-accuracy quartz movement, with owners noting its comfort and reliable performance. Reviewers highlight its functional tool-watch appeal, featuring a sandblasted steel case, tritium tubes for constant low-light visibility, and 100-meter water resistance. One owner finds the 41mm case runs a bit small. The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto utilizes an ETA F06.412 quartz movement with a claimed accuracy of +/- 10 seconds per year and includes a GMT bidirectional bezel. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto highly for its comfortable wear and dependable, high-accuracy quartz movement.
