CWC SBS 1987 Aged SpecialvsLongines CONQUEST CHRONOGRAPH

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.

Owners widely praise the Longines CONQUEST CHRONOGRAPH as a stylish, solid, and easy-to-use automatic chronograph with a bold, sporty design suitable for everyday wear. Accuracy is considered good for a mechanical watch, with one owner reporting -3.3 seconds per day, within typical specifications. However, some owners find the 42mm case, at 14mm to 14.3mm thick, wears larger than expected and feels top-heavy, with one suggesting the movement could be improved with a flyback function. Overall, owners rate the Longines CONQUEST CHRONOGRAPH highly for its stylish design and solid everyday wearability at its price point.
