What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CIGA Design HUNTER

The CIGA Design HUNTER is widely seen as a visually impressive skeleton watch that offers an expensive aesthetic for its price. Owners find the CIGA Design HUNTER weighty but fun, and reviewers highlight its well-executed skeletonization and excellent case integration. However, legibility is a common concern, with one owner noting minimal anti-reflective coating and another pointing out the hands' lume application is lacking. The movement is described as loud by one reviewer, and a significant durability issue was reported by an owner whose watch stopped ticking within a day. The CIGA Design HUNTER features a Grade 5 titanium case with crisp finishing. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the CIGA Design HUNTER for its striking skeletonized design and premium case finishing at an accessible price point, though concerns exist regarding legibility and movement noise.

From video reviewers

The CIGA Design HUNTER's unique layered case with an industrial skeleton aesthetic gives it a futuristic look. A notable weakness is the integrated stainless steel H-link bracelet's noticeable rattle, which may be a drawback for some buyers. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering the custom, in-house movement impressive at the price point, while another suggests the price is higher than some competitors without a clear justification.

Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto

The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto is praised for its high-accuracy quartz movement, with owners noting its comfort and reliable performance. Reviewers highlight its functional tool-watch appeal, featuring a sandblasted steel case, tritium tubes for constant low-light visibility, and 100-meter water resistance. One owner finds the 41mm case runs a bit small. The Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto utilizes an ETA F06.412 quartz movement with a claimed accuracy of +/- 10 seconds per year and includes a GMT bidirectional bezel. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Marathon Steel Navigator SSNAV Auto highly for its comfortable wear and dependable, high-accuracy quartz movement.
