What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

AVI-8 Flyboy Eagle Squadron Automatic Bronze 85th Limited Edition

The AVI-8 Flyboy Eagle Squadron Automatic Bronze 85th Limited Edition is praised for its comfortable 39mm proportions and the warm, evolving character of its bronze case, with some noting the potential for undesirable bronze patina. One owner highlights the legible dial and inner GMT complication, considering the 41mm case, 48.5mm lug-to-lug, and 13mm thickness to be great dimensions, though the stock leather strap and lug hole placement are flagged as limitations. Another owner points out that the lume looks great after a charge. On balance, owners appreciate the AVI-8 Flyboy Eagle Squadron Automatic Bronze 85th Limited Edition for its distinctive bronze case and wearable dimensions at its price point.

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.
