CWC SBS 1987 Aged SpecialvsTissot T-Touch Connect Sport

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.

The Tissot T-Touch Connect Sport is praised for its attractive, traditional watch-like aesthetics and comfortable wearability, featuring a compact 43mm titanium case and a tactile AMOLED screen. Owners and reviewers highlight its impressive Swiss-made solar cell technology, excellent battery life, and solar charging capabilities. The vibration motor for notifications is noted as strong enough to be effective, and the watch displays caller ID and message previews, though notifications cannot be reviewed later. Its motorized hands move quickly to clear the screen for display. However, some find the Tissot T-Touch Connect Sport overpriced and its concept dated, with limited software functionality and a lack of watch face customization. Data is primarily accessed via a paired smartphone app. The motorized hands serve only to move out of the way for the screen, rather than indicating other functions.
