I absolutely love the Vaer. I have the 36 mm version of what you have and it has been the best work watch I’ve ever had. My work is pretty rough so it has really been through the paces and takes it like a champ.
The ARK has actually been my favorite SWC watch that I’ve had in for review. I really like the looks and vibe of the Citizen…I also think it has more of a pilot watch feel.
Thanks so much for sharing... 😁 I picked up the VAER S5 for just 65 bucks preloved... N loved it ever since... Thanks for sharing the great stuff bro... 😁 🤗 😊 💯
Received the Vaer C5 Tactical Two Weeks ago and the SWC Ark on Monday. SWC is so light! Been wearing it since receipt. Both are awesome watches...Around the house my choice is the Ark. Around town it is the C5 Tactical. C5 Tactical as C3 Lume which I like much better than the BGW9 on the Ark...thank you for your review!
I have a few Citizens and I really like the eco-drive mechanism. If it’s going to be quartz might as well be solar. And one of those Citizens eco-drives is over 10 years old and I’ve had zero problems.
@@the1010watchclub oh no. What kind of problems? I assume you mean it can’t hold a charge for long. I wonder how much it would cost to change the battery?
There is a lot to like about the Ark, but I think maybe a slightly more modern looking handset would’ve worked better there. The Vaer is really sharp-looking too.
#3-Love the Citizen -large numerals.... great design....metal bracelet...the triangle representation for the 12. HAPPY HANUKKAH Jonah (and Arthur)!! ☺☺
Hi, I’m in love with the SWC ARK but they’ve been out of stock on their website. Do you happen to know when they restock them or if there are any other retailers selling them? Thanks :)

How's it holding up now?

They’re a great quality watch- I just had my Citizen Nighthawk finally start giving me battery problems after about 15 years.

Yes just charging issues, it needs a new battery. When I send it in I’ll make a video about it
The Ark has my vote. It is my favorite grab and go watch. You can't beat that lume or AR coating.
Easy. the Citizen because of size, bracelet and even brand cache.
This was really well done and informative. Great work bro.
Thank you!

Which one has best lume and thanks.
The lume for all three is decent but the Vaer is brightest and most consistent with both hand and numeral brightness
Great video! I do wish you compared the lume to see how the Vaer paired against the swc! Thanks
At review. I have the SWC Ark GMT and I love it. It's a gorgeous watch that comes with a very nice leather travel case that will hold 2 watches.
Yes, a great carrying case

Thank you! To you too
I have the same Citizen. Best watch for me
All depends on the lume.
any thoughts on the bertucci watches? A2s ballista has similar specs to the watches you mentioned above
I still need to get my hands on one but they look great on paper
love s3

Black and red are in stock right now. They are low so act fast!
The Citizen is my favorite. If I were lost in the jungle I’d like to have that watch. Well, the Atlas from Momentum Beats these 3 IMO.
You're lucky you got a Vaer that works,the one i bought did not. No help from the company at all.
