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 Gold

Owners widely praise the Tissot Le Locle Gold for its stunning PVD gold-plated finish, off-white dial with applied gold numerals and guilloche print, and classic design, considering it an incredible value for a dress watch. Accuracy varies, with some reporting excellent performance while others note deviations of up to 11 seconds per day. Some owners find the stock straps and buckle to be of poor quality, and the dressy nature limits versatility for casual wear. The lug-to-lug measurement is noted as a potential concern for smaller wrists. Overall, owners rate the Tissot Le Locle Gold highly for its elegant dial and finishing at the price.

Vario 1918 Trench Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Trench Brass for its attractive, precisely made dial and case, with the evolving brass patina noted as a positive feature. The bund strap is considered comfortable and well-fitting by some, though others find it stiff and short for larger wrists. The lume is considered poor. The Miyota 82s5 movement is described as adequate, with accuracy ranging from about -10 seconds per day to simply running slow. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Trench Brass highly for its fantastic looks and the unique character of its brass case.
