Cushion Case Watches…….love or hate?
Cushion case watches, do you love or hate them? Let’s discuss!
I’ve always liked the look of Panerai, but the oversized look and price tag was always a little pretentious for my personal taste. But now with their smaller 40mm and 38mm cases, they caught my eye again. Although the price is still up there.
I came across Fears and saw a Brunswick 38 in person. I liked it but didn’t fall in love with it enough to buy it.
I just discovered Duckworth Prestex last night and I gotta say, for the price it’s a sweet looking piece. The fume dial is especially attractive to me. I do wish the white dial variant had different numeral font tho.
So what do you all think? Would you wear/buy one? I know there’s a few other brands like Farer and spinnaker (too colorful for my taste or too large tho). Any other cushion case watches out there?
I enjoy both affordable and luxury time pieces. I just can’t afford the luxury 🤣
I want to build one!

I didn't even know that was an option. What's the specs? If there's a case around 39mm let's talk =)
Some of my most comfortable watches have cushion cases. I can't imagine hating them.

A quick Aliexpress search… also some of the cases dependent on the movement use..
36mm
40mm
44-45 mm
I’m currently working on this panarai clone and decide to replace the movement for a coworker… and made me want to build one for myself …
Depends on the case. Have several, love them.
I wish there were more options out there with cushion cases. I really like Fears. I’ve never tried a Panerai on, but always felt their size looked a bit too large though I like the simple dial design. I am sure Longines has something if I looked long enough. 😂

Some stock photos, but others in gallery.
So is this post about cushion cases or Panerai vs fears and Brunswick? Because I'm not interested in the latter... Also buying a small Panerai is like buying a diesel Ferrari, it goes against the essence of the brand

It’s about the overall look of a “cushion case” watch. I dig them. Would like to find more of them.
Love a curved cushion case!
I built this one about a year ago. It stays in heavy rotation.
