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 Superman Steel CMM.10

Owners widely praise the Yema Superman Steel CMM.10 for its refined casework, including polished lug bevels and an elegant crown guard, and its comfortable 39mm x 10.5mm dimensions. The glossy black lacquer dial and bezel insert are noted for adding depth, and the in-house CMM.10 movement is reported to be accurate, with one owner observing a loss of only 2 seconds over 2 days. The scales bracelet is described as gorgeous and nearly invisible on the wrist, though some find its polished center links too flashy. One reviewer flagged the signature bezel lock mechanism as flimsy and inconvenient. The CMM.10 automatic movement offers a 70-hour power reserve and is regulated to within +5/-3 seconds per day. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Yema Superman Steel CMM.10 highly for its refined finishing and comfortable wearability at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Yema Steel features an in-house movement with a micro-rotor, one of the most beautiful at this price point. The watch's clasp feels a bit thin, which is a notable drawback. Reviewers disagree on the movement's power reserve, with one reviewer noting a 42-hour reserve and the other not mentioning power reserve at all.
