Review summary

Based on reviews, created with AI

Reviewers overwhelmingly had a great experience with this company. Customers consistently praise the product for its excellent quality and superb value for money, often noting improvements in newer versions. Many people appreciate the aesthetic appeal and design, highlighting features like the solid feel of the bracelet, the clarity of the sapphire, and the dynamic colors of the dials. However, some customers also noted issues with quality control, such as scratches on the casing, hazing from improper finishing, or misaligned bezels that felt loose and rattled. A few other people also felt that the registration card serial number did not match the watch, and some experienced problems with the crown thread, making it difficult to screw back in.

Definitely a step up in quality from previous versions. The bracelet feels solid and the sapphire almost appears to not be there. Superb value for money.

I purchased the V2 a couple of years ago. It was a great value but the design started to wear thin. When I saw the version 3, I was pretty excited. The new stick hands, no date, single baton applied i... See more

Field series - Surprisingly good quality

Surprisingly good quality for the money.
Stands up well against my more expensive collection and would say on parr if not little better.
The whole range looks really good, so good in fact, I feel I should buy the entire range 😃

Horrendous.

Horrendous.

Bought one of the early master dive series. Sent it back for repair as the screwdown crown failed almost immediately. Thought, "great, no harm no foul, they fixed it". This morning the watch fell off a table in the gym changing room. Dropped about max five feet. The 12 and 6 indices popped straight off like the flimsy looking pieces of tinfoil they appear to be. If you're going to call a watch 'master dive series 300m' it'd want to be more robust than this absolutely weak piece of tin. Failed experiment by Watchnation to enter the affordable watch game. They look alright but won't last kissing time in the field (and I believe release 2 includes the 'field' series). G-shock all the way, or Timex - unless one wants to look like a pretentious clown with a faux expensive looking watch that you have to baby in case it implodes.

Reply from Cestrian Watches

Hi Ian,

Thank you for your feedback and comments. We understand your frustration, but since the watch was dropped from a height of 4 to 5 feet, it’s important to note that our Dive Series watches aren’t designed to be shockproof like G Shock models. Any watch dropped from that height could have issues. As for the movement stopping, automatic movements are quite delicate, and it’s likely the fall caused it to stop.

We reached out to you directly, offering to have our technical team inspect your watch with a free returns label. Additionally, we proposed a conversation with our founder, David, to better understand the issue and find a resolution. However, you politely declined.

We apologise for any inconvenience this may have caused and we wish you all the best.

Ordered via the website which is easy to navigate. Delivery time was good.
The watch is a real looker.
One slight issue as that some of the wrapping on the bracelet had come/taken off and one link is a tad stiff. This makes me think it may have been a returned item. That said I like the watch and would consider another in the future.

Master Series V2 white dial

Great watch and staggering value for an automatic with sapphire and 200m water resistance. Two-day delivery an added bonus. Well done Cestrian. I’ll be back!

Excellent value for money..

I bought master series model for my dad as he needed a watch with an easy to read dial during the day and night, automatic movement as well as sapphire crystal and not too chunky.
Having searched for two days I came across Cestrian and bought the watch just as a sample and thought will return if I don't like as it was insanely cheap.
But when the watch came, it was unbelievable value for the money I paid as it has very tight and perfect fits and finish also the build quality is really solid as well.
Will definitely buy another from that website.

Cestrian Field series

An absolute joy to deal with. They had run out of stock so took a watch from their own internal stock to complete the order swiftly for me. The watch in terms of performance is -5 secs a day accurate, beautifully screwed together and excellent value from a British company A*

Impossible to beat

Impossible to beat; 300m Diver, Established and reliable movement, Looks the part and just wears beautifully. 10/10 can see myself owning a collection of Cestian watches in the near future.

Orange Diver V2

Orange Diver V2 , arrived promptly . Haven’t adjusted the bracelet yet so not worn . Bezel rather difficult to rotate out of the box , hopefully this will ease up with use , aligns perfectly . Luminescence good and lugs scallop slightly into the end links as with the field series which is an eye catching design feature .
