What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Christopher Ward C60 Lympstone

The Christopher Ward C60 Lympstone is praised for its unique matt crushed carbon fiber dial, described as meteor-like, and its gunmetal PVD case which resembles brushed stainless steel with a patina. Owners consistently highlight the excellent X1 lume, noting it glows brightly for an extended period. The watch features two large, easy-to-use screw-down crowns and an internal compass bezel. The PVD coating is reported to be intact and in excellent condition. Overall, owners highly rate the Christopher Ward C60 Lympstone for its distinctive dial and robust lume.

Boldr Expedition II

Owners widely praise the Boldr Expedition II for its tool watch utility, legible dials, and bead-blasted finish, with many finding its 41mm size ideal for daily wear and comfortable on various wrists. Reviewers and owners alike highlight its excellent value, well-executed details, and the functional design of its knurled crown. Some owners note the dial color can appear creamier than expected online, and one reviewer found the stock rubber strap to be a minor criticism. The Sellita SW200 movement and domed sapphire crystal are also noted as positive features. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Boldr Expedition II highly for its functional field watch design and excellent value.

From video reviewers

The Boldr Expedition II's solid construction and reliability are notable strengths. A weakness is the potential for dim lume brightness, as the entire dial is fully covered in lume but the reviewer's assessment implies it might be inadequate.
