What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Tissot Le Locle Open Heart

Owners widely praise the Tissot Le Locle Open Heart for its elegant aesthetic, featuring a guilloché dial and Roman numerals, and appreciate its practical 80-hour power reserve and Nivachron hairspring. The watch is also noted for offering dual bracelet and strap options, along with a see-through case back. However, one owner flags negative community feedback regarding the comfort of the synthetic leather strap. Overall, owners rate the Tissot Le Locle Open Heart highly for its attractive design and impressive technical specifications 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.
