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 Skin Diver CMM.20

Owners and reviewers widely praise the Yema Skin Diver CMM.20 for its vintage aesthetic, 39mm-39.5mm case size, and the in-house CMM.20 micro-rotor movement. The watch features a textured cream dial, sharp applied indices, and a satisfyingly over-engineered push-to-turn bi-directional bezel. The fully brushed bracelet with toolless micro-adjust clasp is highlighted as a significant improvement, though some note its extended lug-to-lug may challenge smaller wrists. Accuracy figures range from -3/+7 seconds per day to erratic results between 0 and -10 seconds per day, with a 70-hour power reserve. Some owners express concerns about the brand's QC reputation and the micro-rotor movement's performance, while one reviewer noted questionable finishing on a prototype's hour hand and a rattly clasp. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Yema Skin Diver CMM.20 highly for its vintage styling and improved bracelet at the price.
