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.

Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONOGRAPH

Owners widely praise the Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONOGRAPH for its excellent fit and finish and classically styled, vintage theme. The 40mm model's dial is described as mesmerizing and legible, balancing class and complexity. One owner highlights the column-wheel chronograph and crown-set moonphase as exceptional for its price point, which was noted around $1700 USD. Accuracy varies, with one owner reporting +8 seconds per day, while another found the case finishing somewhat homogenous. The watch features a triple date complication and has a water resistance of 3 bar. On balance, owners rate the Longines MASTER COLLECTION CHRONOGRAPH highly for its value and refined aesthetics, particularly the chronograph and moonphase complications.

From video reviewers

The watch's elegant design, featuring an anthracite dial with gold Roman numerals and complications like the moonphase and chronograph, is a shared strength. The brown leather strap is noted as a matter of personal preference.
