Tornek-Rayville TR-660 Aluminum Non-datevsVario Empire Art Nouveau Handwound

Owners praise the Tornek-Rayville TR-660 Aluminum Non-date for its crisp dial and bead-blasted case, with one owner finding it extremely well built and a relief to wear. The watch features a 40mm 316L stainless steel case and a black aluminum bezel inlay. However, the bezel action is considered not brilliant and the included straps are scratchy. Overall, owners find the Tornek-Rayville TR-660 Aluminum Non-date to be a well-executed piece with a pleasing aesthetic, despite minor drawbacks in the bezel feel and strap quality.

Owners widely praise the Vario Empire Art Nouveau Handwound for its detailed, multi-layered dial featuring applied numerals and guilloche patterns, its elegant Art Deco-inspired design, and the enjoyable winding feel of the Miyota 6T33 handwound movement, often visible through an exhibition case back. The 38mm case size is considered a positive by many, and the included leather strap is noted for its comfort and quality. Some owners find the differing fonts on the sub-dials and perimeter less appealing, and the absence of a constant seconds sub-dial is flagged as a drawback. On balance, owners rate the Vario Empire Art Nouveau Handwound highly for its distinctive Art Deco styling and detailed dial at its price point.
