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.

Zelos GT

The Zelos GT is lauded for its value and bold design, with owners highlighting the cool power reserve meter and superb 3-point micro-adjust bracelet. Some owners find the case and lugs could hug the wrist better, and the bracelet is noted as being quite long, requiring significant link removal for a 7.1-inch wrist. The dark green dial, while inspired by Lamborghini, is described as appearing mostly black. Overall, owners rate the Zelos GT highly for its value and the quality of its bracelet at the price point.
