I'd convinced myself I didn't like skeleton watches, but realised I just didn't like chunks hacked out of a normal dial. Now I have two Ciga Design watches and I love them - it actually made me go and learn a little about how mechanical watches actually function. Now I'm hooked.

Jody, you’re killing me, more specifically, my bank account. Now I want one of these. If you just want to tell the time, then just wear a Casio F-91 everyday. This is a nice piece to look at, more like a piece of jewelry but you can still tell the time.

[@mikehoward9912]

Having 60+ diver watches. I'm ready to buy a few skeletons. 7 are on the way including this. I quit the drugs and alcohol. Watches are my only addiction now. Much better investment and no more trips to the nut house or emergency room. Thanks for another enjoyable video.

[@ocb05]

Wow you got it so fast! I am one of the backers here! It is amazing what you can get for less than USD 300! Not adding a date is an excellent choice. I can set it and just go. Date function is grossly overstated IMO. Looking so good in Titanium! That muted grey is something i like. Low profile while premium. Had too many SS watches so this is a nice change. Buy this if you like 1) Skeletonised watches 2) Barrel shaped 3) Something premium feeling but affordable 4) Simple reliable movement instead of multi complications 5) Affordable and don't want to pay Swiss premium for a watch 6) Titanium matte look, and the lightness of it.

[@Valvey789]

We're starting to see more and more titanium watches in the affordable range. One thing this watch has over the new Oris skeletonized titanium is that you can see the balance wheel and escapement from the front.

[@thatguitarist9340]

Hello! My name is James and thanks to your channel I've started my watch collection I'm 15 and have a seiko sea urchin and a G shock gg1000 both because of how highly you value the brands I love both of them, I've started saving for one of these as I adore the way Richard mille watches look and I'm a big racing fan (mclaren are sponsored by Richard mille) so hoping to pick one of these up next year. Thanks for all of the great recommendations! Cheers

[@Fabianwew]

Great video! Depth of focus was a bit shallow. Have you tried stopping down the aperture a few points and increasing exposure instead?

[@TaswcmT]

Richard Mille watches are so expensive that even the Apollo program seems like a bargain in comparison. I'll never grow tired of taking a dig at ridiculously priced watches.

[@vanini5945]

Imho outstanding watch for its price! Thanks for the review 👍

[@JamesVincex]

This was a very lenient for you Jordy, considering how you've blasted other watches for legibility and rotor sound before.

[@neilpiper9889]

A cigar for the man. Well done. You could do a video of the £70 round all clear version. I have one and love it. Excellent timekeeping too.

[@chrispeek380]

Interesting watch. Huge bargain given the work involved in making a skeletonized titanium case and low unit volume curved sapphire crystal . I think that raspy rotor noise would drive me bonkers over time, but still it's great to look at. It's mind boggling what Chinese manufacturing can do at bargain price points.

[@ocb05]

Chris Peek Exactly. And they think this watch is a junk with a bias

[@gianniverschueren870]

Love the fact it's not preposterously big. Wears quite well for this type of watch. Nice one Jody!

[@josephj7387]

Right off the bat...they could avoid the skeleton hands to improve visibility; simple fence post hands with the current red & white design would be good along with a minimum of 50-100atm would bring some peace of mind. Apart from that this looks like a solid piece

Certainly looks like a watch the Terminator would wear once its "organic" skin is all melted away and only the metal skeleton is left. Terminator looks at the time on his Ciga Design Z Series Titanium watch and says, "I'll be back!"

Yes had buy a few of these on crowdfunding Jody, for the design, they presented well in the box like book but I also thought the band looked terrible on the campaign...but was going to gift 🎁 one or two therefore replacing the crappy pretend luxury band with a red nato I had thought 💭. Great 👍 review as always, I think it is a great conversation piece on the wrist, no RM which you can spend up 1M+ USD on, I saw one for 850K the other day that looked like plastic that could of passed for a swatch if it didn’t have a tourneau case.

[@grumpyoldman2380]

It is a very attractive watch, but I wish they could have possibly colored the minute/hour markers in red (to match the hands) and possibly spung for a NH35 instead of a Seagul.

[@simonbenn5340]

I'd rather have the seagul over an nh35 by Sieko. The Seagul holds better time but both last around 25 to 30 years if maintained right. Might need a new spring about 20 years as the time gets worse its time to change the spring which isn't that hard to do.... great watch! I got the gold one for 300$
