What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

CWC G10 Fatboy-80 Quartz Re-Issue Watch

Owners widely praise the CWC G10 Fatboy-80 Quartz Re-Issue Watch for its 36mm size and comfortable, "chunky" wearability, with one owner calling it their "perfect watch." The bead-blasted stainless steel case, fixed spring bars, and acrylic crystal that scratches but buffs out are noted features. Some enthusiasts point out the dial's "T" marking alongside Super-LumiNova as a detail difference from originals, and one owner found the reissue's crystal magnified the dial more. The 50m water resistance is considered sufficient for its field watch purpose. On balance, owners rate the CWC G10 Fatboy-80 Quartz Re-Issue Watch highly for its comfortable wearability and distinct dial at its price point.

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.
