What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer GMT

The Farer GMT Automatic is praised for its vibrant, legible sea-green sunburst dial and well-proportioned 39.5mm, 10mm thin case. The Top Grade ETA 2893-2 movement offers hacking seconds and a 42-hour power reserve. Reviewers note the bronze crown, intended to develop patina, as a potentially unpopular design choice. Overall, reviewers consider the Farer GMT Automatic good value at its price point, highlighting the dial and case proportions as key strengths.

Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph

The Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph is praised for its elegant, art deco-inspired multi-layered dial and comfortable leather strap. Owners note its 38mm diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 11.5mm thickness, along with a sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance. Criticisms include the use of different fonts for sub-dial and perimeter markers, and the absence of a traditional running second hand. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph for its distinctive dial design and comfortable wearability.
