What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Horage Lensman 2

The Horage Lensman 2 is recognized for its innovative photographic exposure calculator bezel and legible dial, making it a functional tool for outdoor photography. Reviewers highlight its well-executed 39mm hybrid titanium and aluminum case, COSC-certified K2 GMT movement, and overall good sizing. The watch is priced at CHF 5,450. On balance, reviewers rate the Horage Lensman 2 highly for its unique functionality as a camera tool combined with its luxury micro-rotor GMT features.

From video reviewers

The K2 Micro-Rotor Calibre is a key innovation in the watch. The watch's prominent lug-to-lug fit may be noticeable compared to other watches. Reviewers disagree on the importance of the sliding exposure scale on the bi-directional bezel, with some considering it a unique feature for photographers and others not explicitly mentioning it as a notable aspect.

Vario 1945 A-11S Solar Quartz

Owners widely praise the Vario 1945 A-11S Solar Quartz for its superb case finishing, legibility, and premium look, with its 40mm size proving comfortable for many wrists. Reviewers highlight its incredible value at $198, featuring a Miyota solar quartz movement and polished chamfers adding unexpected style. Some owners note the lume is poor and the 50-meter water resistance is limited, while others desire a big date complication not supported by the solar movement. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Vario 1945 A-11S Solar Quartz highly for its excellent finishing and value proposition.
