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 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.

Seiko Presage Classic Series "Craftsmanship" Enamel Dial

The Seiko Presage Classic Series "Craftsmanship" Enamel Dial is praised for its balanced feel and fluid, vintage aesthetic, with reviewers highlighting its flawless enamel dial featuring painted Roman numerals and slender blued steel hands. The in-house calibre 6R5H and 6R55 movements provide a 72-hour power reserve, and the watch offers 100 meters of water resistance. However, one reviewer noted a perceived lack of connection to its Japanese silk fabric inspiration, and the US$950 starting price reflects recent Seiko price increases. Overall, reviewers rate the Seiko Presage Classic Series "Craftsmanship" Enamel Dial highly for its beautiful enamel dial and vintage aesthetic at its price point.
