NOMOS Glashütte Metro date power reservevsanOrdain Model 1

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Metro date power reserve for its unique, award-winning design and in-house craftsmanship, with one owner stating they "can't stop looking at it" and find it versatile enough to wear with "basically everything." The watch is noted for its thin case, with dimensions of 37mm case, 7.7mm thickness, and a 43.6mm lug-to-lug distance, and houses the in-house DUW 4401 movement featuring a virtually entirely in-house escapement. Some reviewers and owners find the dial appears duller silver in person than in photos, and the lack of a quick-set date can be a chore for daily wear. One reviewer noted the minute and hour hands are too close in length, and a strap was too small for their wrist. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the NOMOS Glashütte Metro date power reserve highly for its distinctive, playful design and impressive in-house movement at its price point.

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 1 for its exquisite vitreous enamel dial, noting its depth, unique light play, and custom typography. The watch is also commended for its comfortable wearability, elegant design, and appealing price point for its handmade processes, with an 800 vickers hardened case resisting scratches well. Some owners report the Sellita SW200-1 movement's rotor is noticeable and the watch lacks lume. Significant wait times, potentially exceeding two years, are a frequently cited drawback. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 1 highly for its exceptional enamel dial and handcrafted aesthetic at the price.
