Citizen Promaster Skyhawk A-TvsVario 1918 Medic Brass

The Citizen Promaster Skyhawk A-T is praised for its lightweight titanium construction and anti-reflective sapphire crystal. Reviewers note its comprehensive features including radio-controlled atomic timekeeping, a perpetual calendar, and multiple sub-dials for various time zones and functions. Some owners report readability issues with black hands on certain models, while others find the titanium versions wear comfortably, contrasting with the perceived heft of stainless steel variants. The 45mm stainless steel case is detailed with polished chamfers, brushed finishing, and a bidirectional bezel with a slide rule. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the Citizen Promaster Skyhawk A-T for its extensive functionality and durable build at its price point.

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.
