What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Farer CUSHION CASE

The Farer CUSHION CASE is widely praised for its reinterpreted case with dramatic angles and steeper bezel slope, vibrant gradient dials crafted with a unique spinning and layering process, and the visual refinement of the Elaboré-grade Sellita SW210-1 movement with custom engraving. Owners appreciate the case's "bat-ear" lugs, sloping bezel, polished finish, and scalloping between the lugs for strap integration, with specific colorways like pistachio and tea green dials being favorites. Some commenters note the grey numeral track on the salmon dial or eastern Arabic markings on the green dial as detractors, and one user questions the choice of a manual-wind movement over an automatic. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Farer CUSHION CASE highly for its distinctive case design and vibrant, textured dials.

anOrdain Model 2

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 for its exceptional, handmade Grand Feu enamel dial, often described as stunning and liquid-like, with a custom typeface and syringe hands. The simple, rugged 36mm steel case is noted for its organic lines and comfortable wearability, and the hand-winding Sellita SW-210 movement offers a smooth winding action. The watch is considered to offer impressive value for its dial work. Some reviewers note the lack of a running seconds hand, a minute track on certain versions, and limited lume on the hands. Water resistance is rated at 5atm, and one reviewer found the AR coating prone to glare. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 highly for its exquisite enamel dial and strong value proposition.

From video reviewers

The hand-enameled dial is a significant strength. The watch's inclusion in the MoMA Store is also noted.
