Owners + reviewers, side by side
Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
Christopher Ward The Twelve 660 owners and reviewers highlight its exceptionally thin 6.6mm case, achieved through a two-hand design, manual-wind movement, and 30m water resistance. The bracelet clasp, however, lacks micro-adjustments. Opinions are divided on the manual-wind nature and absence of a seconds hand, with some finding them unnecessary while others value the resulting slimness and winding experience. One user noted the logo as a drawback. Overall, the Christopher Ward The Twelve 660 is considered good value and well-made by the community, with its thinness being a primary draw.
Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Trench Brass for its attractive, precisely made dial and case, with the evolving brass patina noted as a positive feature. The bund strap is considered comfortable and well-fitting by some, though others find it stiff and short for larger wrists. The lume is considered poor. The Miyota 82s5 movement is described as adequate, with accuracy ranging from about -10 seconds per day to simply running slow. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Trench Brass highly for its fantastic looks and the unique character of its brass case.
