Review summary

Created with AI, based on recent reviews

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.

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

Excellent Cestrian

Treated myself to a Cestrian dive watch from Watchnation online . Very happy with my purchase as my watch is both comfortable to wear and very pleasing on the eye . In my opinion it compares very favourably to other brands of watches that are much more expensively priced . I admit Cestrian was not a brand I was previously familiar with but is now firmly on my radar . Thanks also to Watchnation for their prompt service and delivery .

Giving Seiko/Citizen/Orient a run for their money.

Brilliant service, buying / updates and delivery, all perfect. I've been a long time supporter of Watch Nation buying online. Always had a great experience. And having visited the shop once, the staff were great and I'd honestly never seen so many Seikos in one place, outside of Tokyo!

Now for the watch - Dive Series v2. Obviously not a long term review having only just bought it, but Inital impressions: Wow, just wow! This watch was cheaper (better value) and better spec than my Orient Kamasu (£200). Yet the quality is EASILY on par with my Seiko king turtle and samurai. Both £550 watches. Well done Cestrian / Watch Nation. I will recommend your watches to anyone who'll listen. Definitely a brand I can get behind and continue to support!

Hi Stephen, thank you for taking the time to leave a review. This means a lot to us, as this is what we set out to do - to offer a level of quality that is not usually found within our price bracket. Thanks again for your review and your support!

Nice design and great quality watch.

Nice design and great quality of the watch that I purchased. Well packaged and fast service.

Update: Having owned this Field Watch variant for a couple of weeks now, it has rapidly become my go to "daily driver" for timekeeping and comfort. This watch has been well set up regulation wise as it keeps time to within a couple of seconds a day which is excellent for an automatic manual movement.

Its clear concise face and overall finish make it superb value at the price point chosen. As well as it's practicality for it's chosen type, this watch would not be out of place as a dress watch also.

Looking at my collection, some watches that are twice the price can't match it for specification and quality. Well done Cestrian!

Excellent Service

The watch was promptly sent out, and the fact they size the bracelet for you lets you know Cestrian’s understanding of the watch enthusiast. The watch itself is excellent value for money. Possibly the best value Automatic Field Watch on sale.

Great customer service after a techno glitch

I had to have bracelet resized despite asking if this could be done on my order and also in an email before shipment

Further to my review, Cestrian's MD came back to me, repaid my resizing fee, and offered me a further discount on another watch. That's good service!!
