Oak & Oscar The Jackson is a 40mm flyback chronograph praised for its balanced design and fine details, with reviewers highlighting the readability of the dial, particularly the new blue option and the 12-hour stacked subdial. The watch features a modular Eterna caliber movement, with one version utilizing the 3916M and another the 3907M, and is housed in a 40mm steel case. It is priced at $3,150 and includes two Horween leather straps and a watch wallet. On balance, reviewers find Oak & Oscar The Jackson to be a sporty, subtle chronograph with a comfortable wearability and an easy-to-read dial.

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.
