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 2 Porcelain

Owners widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 Porcelain for its artistic haute horological experience, sublime design, and exceptional craftsmanship, highlighting the hand-finished, carved, and curved lugs. Reviewers note the deep, glossy black porcelain dial with pad-printed gold numerals and hand-painted lume, though dimples from the traditional production process are visible in certain lighting. The watch features a 39.5mm brushed steel case, a sapphire caseback revealing the La Joux-Perret G101 movement with a 68-hour power reserve, and 50-meter water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 Porcelain highly for its unique dial material and detailed case finishing at its price point.

From video reviewers

The anOrdain Model 2 Porcelain's handmade enamel dial is a notable strength, praised by multiple reviewers for its unique, subtle color shift. A potential drawback is the relatively modest water resistance of 50 meters, which may be a trade-off for the watch's focus on aesthetics. Reviewers disagree on the lug-to-lug fit, with some finding it comfortable and others noting it's somewhat large.

Venezianico Nereide Acquaforte

Owners widely praise the Venezianico Nereide's striking dial design and overall finishing, with many finding its appearance and feel superior in person. The bracelet is noted for its comfort and quality, and the watch is considered suitable for daily wear. Some owners find the case a bit thick for wear under a cuff. The movement is a point of discussion, with one owner preferring a thinner, more accurate caliber over the NH45a, while another review highlights the reliable Sellita SW200-1. The watch is regarded as a good value mechanical diver-style timepiece, featuring a handsome design with a decorative tungsten bezel and aventurine dial, though the stock rubber strap can be stiff. Overall, owners rate the Venezianico Nereide highly for its exceptional dial and finishing at its price point.

From video reviewers

The watch's unique engraved case, inspired by Renaissance ornamentation, is a standout feature. The Miyota 9039 automatic movement provides reliable accuracy. A significant drawback is the difficulty in sourcing the watch due to its high demand.
