What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Oris Big Crown Calibre 113

The Oris Big Crown Calibre 113 is noted for its distinctive mint green and rose pink dial, a 43mm stainless steel case, and an in-house hand-wound movement offering a 10-day power reserve. It includes a business calendar complication, day, date, and a non-linear power reserve indicator, with excellent readability provided by Super-LumiNova. One reviewer found the bold dial color potentially clashes with a business context and wished for a smaller case size. The Oris Big Crown Calibre 113 is priced at CHF 6,350 / €6,350 and includes a five-year warranty. Overall, reviewers highlight the Oris Big Crown Calibre 113's unique dial and extensive complications as its primary draw.

Vario Empire Art Nouveau Handwound

Owners widely praise the Vario Empire Art Nouveau Handwound for its detailed, multi-layered dial featuring applied numerals and guilloche patterns, its elegant Art Deco-inspired design, and the enjoyable winding feel of the Miyota 6T33 handwound movement, often visible through an exhibition case back. The 38mm case size is considered a positive by many, and the included leather strap is noted for its comfort and quality. Some owners find the differing fonts on the sub-dials and perimeter less appealing, and the absence of a constant seconds sub-dial is flagged as a drawback. On balance, owners rate the Vario Empire Art Nouveau Handwound highly for its distinctive Art Deco styling and detailed dial at its price point.
