What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph

The Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph is praised for its elegant, art deco-inspired multi-layered dial and comfortable leather strap. Owners note its 38mm diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 11.5mm thickness, along with a sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance. Criticisms include the use of different fonts for sub-dial and perimeter markers, and the absence of a traditional running second hand. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph for its distinctive dial design and comfortable wearability.

LONGINES TUXEDO

Owners and reviewers widely praise the LONGINES TUXEDO for its elegant vintage-inspired design, featuring an Art Deco dial with Arabic numerals and a versatile 38.5mm polished case. The watch is noted for its comfortable wearability, attributed to shorter, curved lugs, and its Calibre L893 automatic movement offers a 64-hour power reserve. Some reviewers point to the 30-meter water resistance and the plain black leather strap as minor drawbacks, while others note a preference for more brushed case finishing. Overall, the consensus is that the LONGINES TUXEDO is a handsome, accessible retro-styled watch offering excellent value and dial execution.
