What people say

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

Ferro Race Master Chronograph

Owners widely praise the Ferro Race Master Chronograph for its comfortable 39mm brushed steel case and jubilee bracelet, noting strong lume and a beautifully engraved caseback. One owner specifically appreciates the brand's clear movement descriptions and finds the watch a great value for the price. However, one user questioned its value, initially mistaking the movement for a less expensive option, and a pre-production buyer reported communication issues regarding delays. On balance, owners rate the Ferro Race Master Chronograph highly for its comfortable wearability and attractive finishing at its price point.

CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special

Owners widely praise the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special for its rugged build and military heritage, with some finding its quality comparable to higher-end watches. A reviewer notes the 41mm PVD-coated watch features a bright SuperLuminova dial. One owner reports a bit of play in the 60-click bezel, present from new, alongside minor wear on the PVD coating and bezel insert. On balance, owners rate the CWC SBS 1987 Aged Special highly for its rugged build and military heritage, despite some questioning its value at £700.
