What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Orient Kanno

Owners widely praise the Orient Kanno for its refined style and build quality, with one owner specifically preferring its design to another model for its elegance. The bezel color is also a noted positive. However, owners frequently complain about the bracelets, and the 44mm case with a 50mm lug-to-lug is considered large by some. On balance, owners rate the Orient Kanno highly for its refined style and build quality at its price point.

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.
