What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Bremont Supermarine 500M

Owners widely praise the Bremont Supermarine 500M's luxurious appearance and sapphire bezel, with some preferring its design over other luxury dive watches. Reviewers note its updated, legible dial with excellent, long-lasting Super-LumiNova lume. The hardened steel case with anti-reflective coating offers scratch resistance, and the crown placement is a favored feature. Some owners find the 43mm thickness substantial, and one reviewer questions the long-term water resistance of its three-piece case construction compared to traditional designs. Criticisms include the lack of a dive suit extension on the bracelet and a second hand that can be difficult to see in low light, with some finding the bezel markings could be more prominent. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Bremont Supermarine 500M a handsome, rugged dive watch with a refined look that competes well with more expensive brands.

Sinn EZM 12

The Sinn EZM 12 is widely praised as a purpose-built tool watch for air rescue and medical professionals, with reviewers highlighting its innovative design for critical timing, including a one-hour countdown bezel, an internal 10-minute bezel, and a pulsometer for pulse-taking. Its Tegiment hardened case, Ar dehumidifying capsule, and easily removable components for decontamination and strap changes are consistently noted as practical strengths. Owners and reviewers also point to its value at around €2,527/$3,340 and robust magnetic resistance. However, some owners find the dial layout busy and the lume on the hands disappointing, while the winding and inner bezel crowns are reported as difficult to operate, and the 38-hour power reserve is considered less robust than expected for its serious purpose. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Sinn EZM 12 highly for its unique, practical design and robust construction tailored for demanding professional use.

From video reviewers

The tegimented case and bezel offer superior scratch resistance. The dual rotating bezels, an inner count-up and outer countdown, allow for monitoring multiple timeframes simultaneously. Reviewers noted the pulse rotor for measuring heart rate as a unique function.
