What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver

The Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver is a 40mm hand-wind watch with a black dial, acrylic crystal, and FKM rubber strap, powered by a Sellita SW210 manual wind movement. Owners report the watch gained one second per day, and it comes with a QC and timing report. Some find the Desk Diver a unique novelty, though many consider its $1500 price too high. The watch has 0 meters of water resistance, and its vintage case may show small marks. Overall, owners rate the Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver as a unique novelty, with the primary reservation being its high price for its perceived playful nature.

Lorier Zephyr

Owners widely praise the Lorier Zephyr for its stunning guilloche-style dial, refined and perfectly sized unique case shape, and comfortable wearability. The Miyota 9 series movement is noted by owners as being a little noisy, with a rotor whirring audible on quick hand movements. On balance, owners rate the Lorier Zephyr highly for its distinctive dial and case design at the price.

From video reviewers

The watch's vintage aesthetic and value for money are praised. The bracelet's refinement and perceived rattle are noted as a drawback.
