What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Tornek-Rayville TR-660 Sapphire Non-date

Owners widely praise the Tornek-Rayville TR-660 for its quality, good timekeeping, and suitability as a military diver reissue. The 40mm bead-blasted 316L stainless steel case, sapphire bezel inlay, and Arclite Super LumiNova are noted features, powered by a Japanese TMI NH38 automatic movement and water-resistant to 20 ATMs. Some owners suggest alternatives due to availability issues with the small-batch releases. Overall, owners rate the Tornek-Rayville TR-660 highly for its faithful reissue design and quality build at its price point.

Vario 1918 Trench Brass

Owners widely praise the Vario 1918 Trench Brass for its attractive, precisely made dial and case, with the evolving brass patina noted as a positive feature. The bund strap is considered comfortable and well-fitting by some, though others find it stiff and short for larger wrists. The lume is considered poor. The Miyota 82s5 movement is described as adequate, with accuracy ranging from about -10 seconds per day to simply running slow. On balance, owners rate the Vario 1918 Trench Brass highly for its fantastic looks and the unique character of its brass case.
