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.

KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011

Owners widely praise the KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011 for its stunning dials, blued hands, and quality finishing, with many highlighting its great value and vintage-inspired aesthetic. The comfortable jubilee bracelet and excellent lume are frequently mentioned positives. One owner notes the watch is "pretty thick in regards to height," and another points out minor criticism regarding the handset finish and crown edges, with indices and handset sharing a similar color that can obscure visibility. The KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011 utilizes a Miyota 9039 movement, with reported accuracy ranging from -10 to +30 seconds per day. Overall, owners rate the KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011 highly for its attractive design and value proposition.

From video reviewers

The KUOE SOMBRERO 90-011's vintage-inspired dial and hands are a strong point, with reviewers noting their aesthetic appeal. The watch's design is also praised for its uniqueness, with one reviewer calling it "design perfection." However, the relatively short 40-hour power reserve of the MIYOTA Cal.9039 automatic movement is a notable weakness.
