What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

RZE Urbanist

The RZE Urbanist is widely praised as a fantastic, lightweight, "grab and go" everyday watch. Owners highlight its durable titanium case with scratch-resistant coatings and sapphire crystal. The solar movement is noted for keeping good time and is guaranteed for life. Production models feature a push-in crown, a change from earlier screw-down versions. Overall, owners rate the RZE Urbanist highly for its durable, lightweight titanium construction and reliable solar movement.

From video reviewers

The RZE Urbanist features a Japanese movement for accurate timekeeping and reliable performance. The watch's lume brightness is a shared weakness, with both reviewers noting it could be improved. Reviewers disagree on the watch's value, with one reviewer considering it a 'great value' for the price, while the other highlights its solar power feature as a significant strength.

Vario VERSA Reversible Dual Time

Owners widely praise the Vario VERSA Reversible Dual Time for its satisfying reversible mechanism, excellent polishing, crisp dial printing, and exceptional value for a dual-face watch. Reviewers and owners alike highlight its novel reversible design, attractive Art Deco-inspired aesthetic, and the value it offers at its price point. Some owners also commend Vario's customer service. The 12mm thickness is a point of discussion, with some finding it surprisingly wearable due to its stepped case and curved bevels, while others note it as a concern due to the dual-watch construction. One reviewer points out the need to remove the watch to switch faces and the potential for smudging on the hidden side. The lack of lume on one dial is seen as a missed opportunity by one owner. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Vario VERSA Reversible Dual Time highly for its clever, well-executed reversible case design and appealing price point.
