What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen Mickey Astronaut

The Citizen Mickey Astronaut is praised for its highly detailed dial art with luminous Mickey and stars, and offers 100 meters of water resistance. Some owners question its legibility due to the dial design and note its large 42mm case diameter, with one measuring it closer to 45.8mm. The crown placement at 4 o'clock is found difficult to wind by one owner, though they still value the watch. Overall, owners appreciate the Citizen Mickey Astronaut for its unique dial art and robust water resistance, despite some concerns about case size and crown ergonomics.

CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special for its rugged build and military heritage, with some finding its quality comparable to higher-end watches. A reviewer notes the 41mm PVD-coated watch features a bright SuperLuminova dial. One owner reports a bit of play in the 60-click bezel, present from new, alongside minor wear on the PVD coating and bezel insert. On balance, owners rate the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special highly for its rugged build and military heritage, despite some questioning its value at £700.
