Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Citizen ATTESA is widely praised for its advanced features like satellite GPS and solar charging, nearly indestructible Duratect finishing, and a competitive price point for its capabilities. Owners consistently highlight the durable Super Titanium case and sapphire crystal, with one noting no scratches after three years. The integrated bracelet is generally found comfortable, featuring double-hinged links and convenient micro-adjustment systems, though some find the titanium bracelet feels light or flimsy and the clasp has limited adjustment. Reviewers and owners point to the beautiful brushed angled lugs and mix of brushed and polished facets on the case, along with applied hour markers with polished edges on the dial. However, the finishing on the hands is considered a weak point by one owner, with rough edges visible at certain angles, and some find certain dial elements like city names and offset rings redundant.
The CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date is widely praised for its exceptional legibility, particularly its dial design and thickly applied Super-LumiNova that remains readable all night. Owners appreciate its robust, toolish, bombproof design and comfortable wearability, with one noting its 11mm thickness and smaller wear size. The PVD finish withstands significant abuse. The Ronda movement is considered to have consistent second-hand movement. Some find its £700 price steep, especially compared to less expensive quartz divers, and fixed spring bars are noted as a drawback. Customer service is also flagged as potentially lacking by some. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date highly for its military aesthetics, legibility, and robust, comfortable tool-watch build.
