What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch for its legible, uncluttered dial, excellent Super-LumiNova lume, and robust build quality, noting its comfortable 12mm thickness and durable PVD coating. The bezel action is described as having zero back play, and the fixed lugs are appreciated for easy strap changes. One owner reported the lume is readable throughout the night, while another flagged a faulty mechanism requiring replacement and poor retailer customer service. The £700 price is considered high by some compared to similar quartz divers, leading to questions about its value. Overall, owners rate the CWC SBS Black Ice Quartz Watch highly for its bombproof, toolish design and practical aesthetics.

Sugess MoonPhase Master S394

Owners widely praise the Sugess MoonPhase Master S394 for its impressive value, offering multiple complications at a sub-$200 price point, with one owner highlighting its deep blue dial and applied markers. While one owner finds the 14mm thickness acceptable and wearable, another notes the included straps are subpar and the movement finishing is rough under magnification. The long lugs can also create a noticeable gap with the strap. On balance, owners rate the Sugess MoonPhase Master S394 highly for the significant complications and aesthetic appeal it delivers at its accessible price.
