What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Oak & Oscar The Atwood

Oak & Oscar The Atwood is widely praised for its 39mm size and clean design, with reviewers highlighting the powdery matte sandwich dial and smooth pusher action. The manual-wind Sellita AMT5100M flyback chronograph movement is noted for its blued column wheel. Some reviewers would prefer contrasting case finishes, but the fully brushed finish and drilled lug holes contribute to its tool watch feel. Overall, owners and reviewers rate Oak & Oscar The Atwood highly for its excellent value and compact, tool-watch aesthetic.

Vario 1918 Trench Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Trench Brass for its attractive, precisely made dial and case, with the evolving brass patina noted as a positive feature. The bund strap is considered comfortable and well-fitting by some, though others find it stiff and short for larger wrists. The lume is considered poor. The Miyota 82s5 movement is described as adequate, with accuracy ranging from about -10 seconds per day to simply running slow. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Trench Brass highly for its fantastic looks and the unique character of its brass case.

From video reviewers

The Seiko NH35A movement's accuracy and power reserve are discussed. The Miyota 82S5 gilt movement is also mentioned. The watch's value is questioned when compared to competitors like the Seiko 5.
