What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Horage Tourbillon 2

Owners and reviewers highlight the Horage Tourbillon 2's COSC-certified K-TOU movement, featuring a 120-hour power reserve and silicon components, with the tourbillon itself celebrated as a display of engineering as art. The watch is available in various materials and dial options, including Grand Feu enamel and a unique blue pattern. Pre-order prices begin at CHF 8,990 for steel and CHF 20,470 for white gold. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Horage Tourbillon 2 highly for its impressive movement engineering and artistic presentation of the tourbillon at its price point.

Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé

Owners widely appreciate the Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé for its historical representation and the use of two lume colors. The blended branding is considered tasteful by some, though one owner expressed indecision about the logo and crown position. The 37mm bronze case is designed to develop a patina, as are the bronze hands, complementing the gradient matte black dial with faux-patina lume. The Miyota 82S5 automatic movement, however, is noted by owners to be noisy and rattly, with one owner reporting +7 seconds per day accuracy and a 40-hour power reserve. Overall, owners rate the Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé positively for its aesthetic appeal and historical narrative, despite the noisy movement.

From video reviewers

The bronze case developing a patina is a key aesthetic feature. Reviewers found the value proposition to be good at $428 USD.
