What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Dan Henry 1937

On balance, owners have mixed feelings about the Dan Henry 1937, with some finding its dial less appealing than expected while others praise its understated military aesthetic.

From video reviewers

The Dan Henry Gold 1962 Racing Chronograph features a mecha-quartz movement, specifically the Seiko VK63, which is appreciated by reviewers. The watch's two-tone steel and yellow gold finish may be a "hit or miss" from Dan Henry, suggesting it may not be universally well-received. Reviewers disagree on whether the mecha-quartz movement is a drawback, with one reviewer noting it may not appeal to those seeking a purely mechanical movement, while others may not have mentioned this as a concern.

CIGA Design SKELETON

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design SKELETON for its value and willingness to challenge established brands, with some surprised by its quality. One owner reports their CIGA Design Series Z in Black DLC has been perfect for over four years, keeping good time and looking neat. However, some find the skeletonized movement's visibility obscured by reflections due to the lack of anti-reflective coating on the crystal. One owner reported their CIGA Design Z Series Skeleton broke after three months with no customer service response. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design SKELETON highly for its surprising quality and value proposition.
