CWC Cabot Falcon Quartz Chronograph WatchvsSeiko Prospex LX line

Owners widely praise the CWC Cabot Falcon Quartz Chronograph Watch for its domed sapphire crystal and brushed/satin case finish, which contribute to a vintage aesthetic. The case design with wider lugs is noted for providing a beefier, improved appearance. Some owners question the value at over $800, while others defend the price, citing its Swiss-made origin, low production, and collectibility from a respected brand.

Owners widely report the Seiko Prospex LX line's finishing is a step up from other models, with a case that sits well on the wrist, and some praise the green sunburst dial with blue anti-reflective sapphire crystal as phenomenal. However, owners note the high MSRP limited sales, with some desiring smaller cases and a reduced price, and others experienced quality control issues such as detached second hands and peeling DLC coating, leading to concerns about fragility. On balance, owners feel the Seiko Prospex LX line was discontinued due to pricing that alienated its target market, despite its attractive dial.
