Horage Tourbillon 2vsVario 1918 Pilot

Owners and reviewers highlight the Horage Tourbillon 2's COSC-certified K-TOU movement, featuring a 120-hour power reserve and silicon components, with the tourbillon itself celebrated as a display of engineering as art. The watch is available in various materials and dial options, including Grand Feu enamel and a unique blue pattern. Pre-order prices begin at CHF 8,990 for steel and CHF 20,470 for white gold. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Horage Tourbillon 2 highly for its impressive movement engineering and artistic presentation of the tourbillon at its price point.

The Vario 1918 Pilot is praised for its classy, unique, and beautifully done vintage theme, especially its 45-degree tilted enamel dial and cathedral hands, offered at a bargain price. Owners note the Miyota 8N33 hand-wound movement with over 40 hours of power reserve and C3 lume. Some find the 40mm size a bit small for larger wrists, and the Vario logo is occasionally seen as out of place. The tilted dial is impractical for right-wrist wear, and one owner reported disappointment with the movement's loudness. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Vario 1918 Pilot well for its unique dial execution and vintage aesthetic at an accessible price point.
