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.

Longines LEGEND DIVER 59

The Longines LEGEND DIVER 59 is widely praised for its warm colors and the 42mm no-date configuration, with owners appreciating its comfortable and versatile wearability. Reviewers highlight the matte black grained-texture dial and sandblasted hands, noting the COSC-certified L888.6 caliber offers a 72-hour power reserve, all at a $4,100 price point. Opinions on bracelet comfort vary, with some finding it bulky on smaller wrists while others prefer it over the mesh option. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Longines LEGEND DIVER 59 a great release that preserves the model's identity.
