What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

anOrdain Model 1

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.

From video reviewers

Thoughtful finishing and beautiful color options are notable strengths of the anOrdain Model 1. The watch's lug-to-lug fit is relatively long, which may not suit everyone's wrist size, and the relatively low 5ATM water-resistance may limit its suitability for swimming or diving. Reviewers disagree on the movement used in the watch, with some mentioning the Sellita SW210 or La Joux Perret G101, while others mention the Sellita SW200.

NOMOS Glashütte Tangente gold neomatik 38 Update

Owners widely praise the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente for its beautifully simple, minimalist design, thin and light wearability, and value. The 38mm case size is frequently cited as perfect and wearable, with one owner noting its under-the-radar versatility. The German in-house manual-winding Alpha movement is a specific point of appreciation. However, one owner reported significant accuracy issues, with the watch losing up to 60 seconds a day, and another noted the hard-edged case is prone to scratches. Some owners also find the lugs wear larger than the case size. On balance, the consensus is that owners highly value the NOMOS Glashütte Tangente for its minimalist design and wearability at its price point.
