What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CIGA Design CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE HORSE

The CIGA Design CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE HORSE is noted for its striking central tourbillon, DLC-coated titanium case, and 24k gold horse with diamond hands, all offered at a price point under $2,700. One owner reported their watch stopped working after two months, and the company did not respond to inquiries, while another found the leather strap to be subpar. The watch has a 45.5mm size and a 38-hour power reserve. On balance, owners and reviewers acknowledge the CIGA Design CHINESE ZODIAC YEAR OF THE HORSE as an attention-grabbing showcase of modern Chinese watchmaking, with its standout tourbillon and material execution being key draws despite some reported durability and accessory concerns.

Maen Manhattan 40

Owners appreciate the Maen Manhattan 40's thin case and unique dial, with some finding its proportions too large for smaller wrists. One owner noted a snagging crown and difficult winding action. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting +18s/d to +24s/d on the 37mm version, while another owner of the 40mm model did not specify accuracy. On balance, owners and reviewers find the Maen Manhattan 40 to be a good value, with its thinness and dial finishing being key strengths.
