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.

Wolbrook Skindiver WT Mecaquartz

Owners widely praise the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Mecaquartz for its authentic vintage vibe, Worldtimer bezel, and value, offering more personality than typical retro divers. The upgraded model is noted for its perfect look at its price point with a domed crystal and screwed-down crown. Some owners flag mismatched hand and marker colors, poor lume, bezel wobble, and the watch sitting high on its strap. Accuracy is described as quartz-level, and the push/pull crown has excellent friction with a smooth, 120-click bezel. On balance, owners rate the Wolbrook Skindiver WT Mecaquartz highly for its vintage personality and value for money.
