Cincinnati Watch Company Desk Diver

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.

Traska Seafarer Charcoal

The Traska Seafarer Charcoal's notable strength is its refined finishing, which elevates it from a field watch to a luxury-like piece.
