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 Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date

The CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date is widely praised for its exceptional legibility, particularly its dial design and thickly applied Super-LumiNova that remains readable all night. Owners appreciate its robust, toolish, bombproof design and comfortable wearability, with one noting its 11mm thickness and smaller wear size. The PVD finish withstands significant abuse. The Ronda movement is considered to have consistent second-hand movement. Some find its £700 price steep, especially compared to less expensive quartz divers, and fixed spring bars are noted as a drawback. Customer service is also flagged as potentially lacking by some. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the CWC SBS Divers Issue Quartz Watch Mk.2 Day/Date highly for its military aesthetics, legibility, and robust, comfortable tool-watch build.

Pagani Design PD-1706 GMT

Owners widely praise the Pagani Design PD-1706 GMT's bracelet, noting its fantastic build with screw links and a bezel that exhibits no play. However, the Pearl DG5833A movement requires approximately 50 crown winds to start, and the rotor is described as noisy. The 60-click unidirectional bezel is criticized for not aligning precisely with 24 time zones, and some owners find the red crown ring unappealing. Overall, owners rate the Pagani Design PD-1706 GMT highly for its bracelet quality and bezel action, despite some noted movement and aesthetic quirks.
