CWC GS Sapphire - Any Other 36mm 200M Water Resistant Watches
I’ve been wearing the CWC GS Sapphire quite a bit after having discovered the joy of wearing it with an elastic MN style strap. I’m a fan of smaller watches and this one ticks a lot of boxes with its sapphire crystal and 200M water resistance. It’s also quartz with a 10 year battery so it fits right in as a daily grab and go.
I was just wondering… are there any other 26mm watches with this level of water resistance, either quartz, manual, or auto? I have other (larger) watches, but I keep coming back to this size, as it’s really comfortable for daily wear.
Just thought I would start a thread for folks to share if there are any other heavy hitting smaller watches out there.

Love this and the strap. I totally think quartz is making a strong come back.
Lovely choice!
That looks quite interesting, actually! Had never seen this one before. Thanks!

This is my Tudor BB36. It has 150m of water resistance which is more than enough for anything you are likely to do
Timex Expedition North Field Post is 36mm w sapphire crystal. Only 100m, but screw down crown. Plus it’s solar, so even more low maintenance:
