What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Hamilton Jazzmaster Skeleton Auto

The Hamilton Jazzmaster Skeleton Auto is praised for its redesigned dial that balances complexity and legibility, forming an "H" logo and highlighting the H-10-S movement. Owners appreciate the 80-hour power reserve and the seamless blend of the bracelet with the lugs. The watch is available in 40mm and 36mm sizes, with prices ranging from A$1,925 to A$2,200, and features 50m water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Hamilton Jazzmaster Skeleton Auto highly for its distinctive dial design and impressive power reserve at its price point.

From video reviewers

The 80-hour power reserve from the H-10 automatic movement is a notable strength. Water resistance to 5 ATM is considered on the lower side for the price point.

Vario 1918 Trench Brass

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.
