What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC G40 Quartz Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC G40 Quartz Watch for its robust 20atm water resistance and domed sapphire crystal, with one owner finding the faux patina subtle and natural. However, some find the dial proportions of the 40mm model to have too much negative space and ill-proportioned numerals. On balance, owners appreciate the CWC G40 Quartz Watch for its rugged build and grab-and-go reliability.

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.
