What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Oris X Cervo Volante

The Oris X Cervo Volante's 38mm case size is widely praised as ideal by owners. The deer leather strap is described as fantastic, though one owner found it stiff with a loose keeper. The gradient dial and pointer date function are noted features, with one reviewer mentioning the crystal's dome and pointer date can make reading the date difficult and the watch feel thicker. The Oris X Cervo Volante is powered by the Calibre 754 with a 41-hour power reserve and was priced at $2,600 USD. On balance, owners and reviewers appreciate the Oris X Cervo Volante for its ideal 38mm size and unique Cervo Volante deer leather strap.

From video reviewers

The Oris x Cervo Volante features a unique and evocative dial, with burnt maple and fumé options that capture the essence of a Canadian autumn and shift from a darker brown to a lighter brown as the light catches it. The watch's sustainable deer leather strap is also a notable feature. However, the lume is somewhat underwhelming, particularly considering the watch's price point, and the lug-to-lug fit is relatively long, which may not be ideal for those with smaller wrists.

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.
