What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Bremont Altitude MB Meteor

The Bremont Altitude MB Meteor features a 42mm Grade 2 titanium case with black DLC finishing and a refined Trip-Tick construction. Reviewers note its slimmer profile and reduced lug-to-lug distance make it more wearable than previous MB models. The watch has a bi-directional Roto-Click inner bezel, a black dial with Felix the Cat imagery and bright yellow accents, and is powered by the automatic calibre BB14-AH with a 68-hour power reserve. Overall, reviewers highlight the Bremont Altitude MB Meteor's improved wearability and distinctive design elements.

Vario 1918 Medic Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Medic Brass for its crisp enamel dial, easy-to-read numerals, and cathedral hands, noting the brass case develops an attractive patina over time. However, the soft brass scratches easily, and one owner found the lume to be poor. Accuracy varies, with one example running slow by about 10 seconds per day and another owner deeming the Miyota 82s5 movement just okay. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Medic Brass highly for its unique dial and the evolving character of its brass case.
