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.

Spinnaker Fleuss Pearl Diver Nessie

Owners widely report a split on the Spinnaker Fleuss Pearl Diver Nessie's build quality, with some finding it disappointing due to issues like misaligned bezels or indices, while others praise its robust construction. The watch features a blue mother-of-pearl dial with a hidden Nessie silhouette, powered by a Miyota 8245 movement and priced at $425. One owner noted the Spinnaker Fleuss Pearl Diver Nessie felt a bit large. Overall, owners and reviewers find the Spinnaker Fleuss Pearl Diver Nessie offers good value with unique design elements that celebrate its theme without being overly cartoonish.

From video reviewers

The blue Mother-of-Pearl dial with "Nessie" easter eggs is a distinctive design element. The 43mm case size may be substantial for smaller wrists.
