What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer 36MM THREE HAND

The Farer 36MM THREE HAND is praised for its vibrant dials, compact 1960s-inspired design with fluid lines and slim bezel, and a 68-hour power reserve from its La Joux-Perret G101 automatic movement. Reviewers note the 39mm stainless steel case features polished finishes and brushed lugs, a screwed-down crown, and 100m water resistance. Some models include Super-LumiNova Arabic numerals and applied markers with syringe hands. One reviewer found the included red strap too thick and stiff, and the minute hashes difficult to read. On balance, reviewers highlight the unique dial colors and textures, along with the accessible price point, as key strengths of the Farer 36MM THREE HAND collection.

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.
