What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Vaer Field

Owners widely praise the Vaer Field's wearability, citing its slim 10.4mm thickness and 40mm case size. Reviewers and owners alike commend the crisp dial and excellent C3 SuperLuminova lume, with one owner noting it is "crazy bright." The Miyota 9015 movement is reported by one owner to run at +6 seconds per day. Some owners find the date window on older models to be a design flaw, and the lug hole placement can create a gap with standard straps. The $549 price is considered a hard sell by some, with others feeling it offers less value than established brands. Overall, owners rate the Vaer Field highly for its comfortable, slim case and bright lume at its price point.

Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph

The Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph is praised for its elegant, art deco-inspired multi-layered dial and comfortable leather strap. Owners note its 38mm diameter, 46mm lug-to-lug, and 11.5mm thickness, along with a sapphire crystal and 5 ATM water resistance. Criticisms include the use of different fonts for sub-dial and perimeter markers, and the absence of a traditional running second hand. Overall, owners appreciate the Vario Empire Tachymètre Chronograph for its distinctive dial design and comfortable wearability.
