Studio Underd0g Mint Choc Chip (Gen3)vsVario 1918 Medic Brass

Owners and reviewers praise the Studio Underd0g Mint Choc Chip (Gen3) for its unique, visually striking design, featuring an asymmetrical dial, textured two-tone finish, orange chrono hand tips, and chocolate chip hour markers, all housed in a comfortable 38.5mm case with a hand-winding SeaGull ST-1901 movement and a goat-skin strap. Some owners, however, find the watch overpriced for its movement and dial quality, and a few feel it appears toy-like on larger wrists. Overall, owners and reviewers value the Studio Underd0g Mint Choc Chip (Gen3) for its distinctive aesthetic and comfortable wear, despite some reservations about price and perceived scale.

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.
