CIGA Design Z Series Automatic Mechanical Watch, Luxury Skeleton Wristwatch Tonneau with Leather and Silicone Strap Stainless Steel Business Dress Waterproof Timepiece Gifts for Men and Women

The media could not be loaded. Don’t really have anything bad to say about this watch it’s truly a work of art and a great Conversation starter. You will definitely break necks and people will want to know what kinda watch you’re wearing. The only thing I would say I “dislike” is the fact the hands do not glow in the dark that well so trying to tell time in the dark on this already hard to read watch will be nearly impossible. But overall great watch and I definitely plan on adding more to my collection. I can just use my phone to tell the time lol

I've been lusting after this watch for some time, but couldn't bring myself to pull the trigger at full price, nor order it from AliExpress. On Black Friday, this was a no-brainer...and I'm glad I did.With the exception of the included leather strap, everything about this watch is top drawer. It is gorgeous and incredibly well constructed. Can you read it? No. Does that matter? Not even a little. This watch is for show, and I can't wait to show it.As for the straps, I love the rubber/silicone strap. It is as well crafted as the watch and has its own artistic flair. They could have passed on the leather strap. It doesn't match the vibe of the watch at all, and it is nowhere near the quality of the rubber/silicone. Fortunately, it is a standard size (22mm) so I might fine another use for it.Is this watch an homage of Richard Mille? Absolutely not...unless you count every skeleton-style watch as an homage to Richard Mille, which is silly. This watch is its own design and an award-winning design at that. Will anyone mistake this for a Richard Mille? Certainly not on my wrist as I do not have Richard Mille money. But I believe anyone who KNOWS Richard Mille design will not confuse any of their watches with this one.

I first heard of CIGADesign watches probably a year ago. Now that I’ve purchased the “Z” series in stainless with the blue band combo, my first CIGA watch; I absolutely love it!I just read the KAMINSKY BLOG critique on the watch (black with DLC). I agree with much that he said. The one thing I disagree on is that he basically stated that for the price, there were better watches available. Here are my thoughts. It is design distinctive, and I am somewhat of a collector. I own around 32 watches, a very small collection to some.This watch is beautifully designed, and skeleton watches are my personal favorite. I agree the hands could be beefier. The red color does help with the visual, but, in the dark (with the luminescence markings on the hour and the minute hand the same size) it is very hard to tell the orientation to determine what time it is. I noticed that one of the “Z” series models does have luminescence on all of the stadium markers. This would have helped with all Z models, as mine does not have this.Okay, all in all, I love it!!! The detail work with the laser cut outs in the case and the little Y screw designs are nice touches. The skeleton case is unlike most that I see (other than high end models). I have not had trouble telling the time in daylight, but I’ve literally only had the watch for 4 days now.It is a beautiful piece of art and I am thoroughly happy with it.Thank you CIGA and Amazon💙

Love the look and feel of the watch however 3 months into the ownership of the watch it just stopped working. Haven't tripped the watch or anything to cause this. I get that it's not an expensive watch, but with an automatic watch I expected it to last longer.Update 2: updated to 3 stars after the company reached out and replaced the watch for me, I will update after 3 months if the watch does not have any other issues.Update 2 it has been well over 3 months on the replacement watch (closer to 6 months if I'm honest) i feel like if the replacement has a super loud movement but aside from this it works great. No issues no condensation in the watch. 3rd party 22 mm straps are a little snug to get in but they work. This is by no means a collector watch(not expecting it at this price range) but it's a nice looking beater watch for guys with big wrists. Looks nice, keeps time again decent watch for the price

awesome quality,Very nice packing.honest feeling, straps would have been as good as dial. But thats not a showstopper.

Very cool design, and great value for the price. I can wear it daily and not be paranoid about beating it up like my more expensive watches. I have a 71/4” wrist and as the watch is large , still wears well. Would recommend.Update: Less than a year later , this barely worn watch is gaining 15 minutes in 24 hrs. While the watch looks cool, it obviously lacks something. Namely customer support. Reached out for support, repair whatever, and got nothing back. Amazon has failed to respond as well. Definitely do not recommend.

Would not mind being able to have a real Richard Mille watch but alas I am not one of the special people in the world. But this is a great second in line. Price point is really good for a watch maker who has won numerous awards. It is very light and the presentation is awesome, the little "book" that comes with the watch is really neat too. I would suggest this as a good casual or even dressy watch, just remember that the water rating is very low so only hand washing would be suggested with this watch. Overall, I really like it and would recommend it to anyone.
