What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

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.

Zelos Thresher 44

Owners widely praise the Zelos Thresher 44, with one owner noting its finish has proven remarkably scratch-resistant. However, one owner found the finishing on their hammered grey variant not as well done as expected. The Zelos Thresher 44 with an agate dial sold out in 90 seconds, with one owner receiving theirs and noting the bracelet was fully wrapped. Overall, owners rate the Zelos Thresher 44 highly for its desirability and scratch-resistant finish.
