CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue WatchvsSpinnaker Fleuss 40 Automatic

Owners widely praise the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch for its faithful homage to vintage military divers, highlighting details like the dial markings, luminous acrylic bezel, vintage logo, and well-proportioned hands. One owner reports accuracy under +2 seconds per day. However, some find the "faux patina" lume too gold and glossy, and the polished case unusual for a military watch. The fixed lugs are noted as a potential drawback for some, though others appreciate them as a tool watch feature. Opinions on the value are split, with some questioning the $2.5k price point due to the ETA movement, while others see it as a strong alternative to more expensive watches. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the CWC (Cabot Watch Company) 1980 RN Divers Automatic Re-Issue Watch well for its vintage aesthetic and tool watch capabilities, despite some reservations about its price and specific execution details.

Owners find the Spinnaker Fleuss 40 Automatic a good size for smaller wrists, though one owner notes the lume is too diffuse for easy nighttime reading. The pilot-style crown is an unusual feature for a dive watch. Overall, owners value the Spinnaker Fleuss 40 Automatic for its wearability on smaller wrists.
