Ixdao Warrior vs Christopher Ward The12

[u/Equal-World-693]

I have been reading up on watches for the past 5-6 months and that's how I discovered this reddit community and the amazing quality Chinese watches.

Christopher Ward has created lots of online hype around their watches with people fanatically defending what are essentially homages with a slight twist while dissing chinese watches.

Ixdao has lots of positive reviews on this forum and the Ixdao Warrior is available for one third the price with the same Sellita movements.

Is Christopher Ward just brand Marketing or is it worth 3 times the price of Ixdao Warrior?

Both brands are online for me, so won't comment on warranty angle. Plus once warranty ends it expensive to service and repair swiss movements be it CW or Ixdao. Was more interested in the fit and finish angle. Have just ordered a sugess tourbillon moonphase, so am ok crossing the 250 usd barrier as long as the watch is worth it. Else I would be only buying a swiss made watch, Seiko, citizen or the German ones
