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 GORILLA

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design GORILLA for its incredible wrist presence, unique skeletonized design with purple accents, and exceptional value under $400, with one owner highlighting its quality and scratch resistance from Gorilla glass. Reviewers note the watch's striking, Hublot-esque aesthetic and shock-resistant suspension system. However, legibility can be challenging, lume is weak, and the CD-01 movement gains approximately 17 seconds per day with a 40-hour power reserve. Community sentiment is divided, with some finding the design "hideous" while others enthusiastically recommend it as affordable, interesting, and cool. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the CIGA Design GORILLA highly for its bold, unconventional design and accessible price point.

Zelos Aurora Field

The Zelos Aurora Field is praised for its unique and gorgeous dial, with the hammered teal bronze version and its great lume, particularly on the minute track, being singled out. Owners find the rubber strap comfortable and flexible with good hardware, and the watch is highlighted as feature-packed for its price point, including 200m water resistance, Grade 2 titanium, and 30,000 A/m anti-magnetism, with the new clasp noted as the best to date. However, some owners criticize sharp bracelet edges, an odd case shape with lugs that cause it to wear high, and dial text that appears cheap and plasticky, with one commenter finding the straight lugs look a bit off. Overall, owners rate the Zelos Aurora Field highly for its value and unique dial, despite some concerns about case and bracelet finishing.
