What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Venezianico Arsenale 37

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Venezianico Arsenale 37 for its superb execution and value, highlighting its thin 8.95mm case and excellent finishing for its sub-$1000 price. The dynamic dial, featuring Côtes de Genève, is noted as a positive design element. Some owners desire a smaller diameter and half links for the bracelet, and the strap-changing mechanism is described as difficult. One reviewer points out the lack of lume and visible screws fastening the bracelet, while another notes the seconds hand can become invisible under certain lighting conditions. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Venezianico Arsenale 37 highly for its impressive finishing and thin case at its price point.

From video reviewers

The watch's compact 37mm case is a notable strength, fitting almost every wrist perfectly. A weakness is the somewhat lacking lume brightness, which may be a drawback for some users. Reviewers disagree on the lug-to-lug length, with some finding it too short and others not mentioning it as an issue.

Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph

The Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph is praised for its elegant, art deco-inspired multi-layered dial and comfortable leather strap. Owners note its 38mm diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 11.5mm thickness, along with a sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance. Criticisms include the use of different fonts for sub-dial and perimeter markers, and the absence of a traditional running second hand. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph for its distinctive dial design and comfortable wearability.
