What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Cincinnati Watch Company P-40 A-11 Pilot

Owners widely praise the Cincinnati Watch Company P-40 A-11 Pilot for its great size, comfortable bracelet, phenomenal timekeeping, simple design, and great craftsmanship. One owner notes the finishing is sharp. Some users wish for a smaller size, and one owner points out the quick-release spring bars can dig in while the bracelet lacks micro-adjustments. Overall, owners rate the Cincinnati Watch Company P-40 A-11 Pilot highly for its great size and phenomenal timekeeping.

Vario 1918 Pilot

The Vario 1918 Pilot is praised for its classy, unique, and beautifully done vintage theme, especially its 45-degree tilted enamel dial and cathedral hands, offered at a bargain price. Owners note the Miyota 8N33 hand-wound movement with over 40 hours of power reserve and C3 lume. Some find the 40mm size a bit small for larger wrists, and the Vario logo is occasionally seen as out of place. The tilted dial is impractical for right-wrist wear, and one owner reported disappointment with the movement's loudness. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Vario 1918 Pilot well for its unique dial execution and vintage aesthetic at an accessible price point.
