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.

Yema Navygraf Heritage

Owners widely praise the Yema Navygraf Heritage for its comfortable 39mm wearability and faithful 1970s reissue design, noting craftsmanship better than expected. Some owners report quality control issues including bezel free play and misalignment, while others find the bezel very tight to turn despite precise 120 clicks. The in-house MBP2000 movement is noted by some to be loud and run approximately +10 to +15 seconds per day. On balance, owners appreciate the Yema Navygraf Heritage for its retro aesthetic and comfortable sizing, with noted concerns around movement accuracy and bezel action.
