What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Meca-Quartz Chronograph

Owners widely praise the AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Meca-Quartz Chronograph for its vintage-inspired, cockpit instrument aesthetic and the functional meca-quartz chronograph movement. The blue dial is described as stunning with depth, and the aviation-style numerals and brushed steel case contribute to its look. One owner notes the non-sapphire crystal scratches easily, and another criticizes the highly reflective crystal and poor lume. On balance, owners rate the AVI-8 P-51 Mustang Blakeslee Meca-Quartz Chronograph highly for its collectible aviation tribute design and satisfying meca-quartz chronograph function.

Vario 1918 Medic Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Medic Brass for its crisp enamel dial, easy-to-read numerals, and cathedral hands, noting the brass case develops an attractive patina over time. However, the soft brass scratches easily, and one owner found the lume to be poor. Accuracy varies, with one example running slow by about 10 seconds per day and another owner deeming the Miyota 82s5 movement just okay. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Medic Brass highly for its unique dial and the evolving character of its brass case.
