What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen ATTESA

Owners widely praise the Citizen ATTESA for its stylish, tech-heavy design, comfortable titanium build, and excellent value, particularly its solar and GPS/radio sync accuracy. Reviewers and owners highlight the beautiful, legible dials and the convenience of features like perpetual calendars and easy time zone changes, making it a great "grab and go" watch. Some owners find the mode cycling over-complicated or the size large, and one reviewer notes the finishing on the hour and minute hands can be rough. The titanium bracelet's micro-adjust clasp is also a point of contention, with some finding it offers limited sizing options and a flimsy feel. Overall, owners rate Citizen ATTESA highly for its advanced features and comfortable, lightweight titanium construction at a competitive price.

CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch for its bombproof, no-nonsense, toolish design and military connection, with the PVD finish being a liked feature. Reviewers highlight its highly legible, classic dial and durable, tool-like PVD-coated case that shows remarkable resilience. The Ronda 517 quartz movement is appreciated for grab-and-go reliability and good seconds hand accuracy, with one owner noting it aligns closely with indices. The 45mm case size and fixed spring bars are seen by some as positive for NATO strap wear. Some owners find the £700 price steep for a quartz watch, comparing it unfavorably to similarly specified alternatives. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1987 SBS Quartz Diver Re-Issue Watch highly for its rugged military aesthetics and reliable tool-watch functionality at its price point.
