Enamel Dial, Wire Lugs, Pulsometer! Vario 1918 Medic Automatic Trench Watch Review

The 1918 Medic from Vario is a tribute to the WWI trench watch. It’s got all the vintage vibe but with a modern flair. The Medic features a pulsometer scale around the outside edge of the enamel dial; the most simple form of this complication. Wire lugs, a leather Bund strap, double domed sapphire crystal, etched solid caseback, and a Seiko NH38 automatic movement, all come together in harmony with the Vario 1918 Medic.

This watch was on loan from the manufacturer for the purpose of showcasing on this channel, without compensation. The watch was returned to the manufacturer after all filming was completed.

I’d like to play around with that heartbeat function

I have just reviewed the non medic version and it’s glorious, very tempted by this version and you’re right about the bund! Great review

Potential alternative to fitness tracking smart watches - but safest to only take resting pulse rate (from neck) as could be a distraction if doing sports.

I guess anything past 9 0'Clock is dead.
