What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC G10 Fatboy-80 Quartz Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC G10 Fatboy-80 Quartz Re-Issue Watch for its 36mm size and comfortable, "chunky" wearability, with one owner calling it their "perfect watch." The bead-blasted stainless steel case, fixed spring bars, and acrylic crystal that scratches but buffs out are noted features. Some enthusiasts point out the dial's "T" marking alongside Super-LumiNova as a detail difference from originals, and one owner found the reissue's crystal magnified the dial more. The 50m water resistance is considered sufficient for its field watch purpose. On balance, owners rate the CWC G10 Fatboy-80 Quartz Re-Issue Watch highly for its comfortable wearability and distinct dial at its price point.

KUOE OLD SMITH 90-001

KUOE OLD SMITH is widely praised for its vintage aesthetic and comfortable 35mm wearability, with owners noting its attractive bronze case and dial contrast. Reviewers and owners alike highlight its excellent accuracy. However, the case finishing is considered average for the price, and the lume fades quickly. Some find the small date window difficult to read, and the Seiko NH38 movement is described as noisy. The 18mm lug width and PVD-coated strap hardware are also noted as drawbacks. Overall, owners and reviewers find the KUOE OLD SMITH to be a compelling vintage field watch offering good value, particularly for its aesthetic appeal and accuracy.
