What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen Promaster Skyhawk A-T

The Citizen Promaster Skyhawk A-T is widely praised for its blend of functionality, toughness, and value, featuring an Eco-Drive movement with atomic timekeeping and a slide rule bezel. Reviewers highlight its legible dial with multiple complications and 200m water resistance. Owners note that titanium models wear better than stainless steel versions, with one user describing the latter as a "boat anchor." The watch offers significant functionality and value at its price point. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Citizen Promaster Skyhawk A-T highly for its extensive features and robust build at an accessible price.

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.
