Citizen Promaster DivervsVario 1918 Medic Brass

Owners widely praise the Citizen Promaster Diver for its lightweight titanium construction, comfortable wear, and excellent specifications for its price, with one owner noting handsome dial construction from recycled materials and accuracy of +1 second in 7 days. Some owners find its brushed finish unremarkable, its bezel action mediocre, and its rotor loud, while one example showed a slightly misaligned bezel and chapter ring. On balance, owners rate the Citizen Promaster Diver highly for its lightweight titanium build and strong value proposition.

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.
