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.

Yema Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force

Owners widely praise the Yema Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force for its attractive, toolish aesthetic and excellent quality for the price, noting the legible Type A dial and 40mm titanium case. However, the acrylic crystal scratches easily, and the titanium case is prone to marking. The mecha-quartz movement's chrono timer sweeps rather than ticks, and one owner questions the purpose of the oversized crown. The in-house Yema 2000 movement is accurate at +/- 10 seconds per day but has a 42-hour power reserve, and some owners express concerns regarding Yema's past quality control and customer service. On balance, owners rate the Yema Flygraf Bi-Compax French Air Force highly for its attractive design and value, despite concerns about material durability and brand service history.
