Reviews

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

Alkin Watches Model Two

Owners praise the Alkin Watches Model Two for its exceptional dial legibility and minimalist dive watch design. The watch is considered a decent value proposition, featuring a sapphire crystal and the Miyota 9039 automatic movement, with pre-orders priced at £325. Overall, owners rate the Alkin Watches Model Two highly for its clear dial and value at the price point.

From video reviewers

The watch features extreme lume and a reliable Miyota 9039 movement. Reviewers noted disagreement on the utility of the internal bi-directional bezel for quick timing compared to a standard external bezel.

Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch

Owners praise the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch for its value, sapphire crystal, and durable build quality, with many appreciating the 39.9mm case size for its smaller, trendy appeal and the raw steel bezel for a vintage look. The bracelet features folded end links, and while the in-house automatic Orient F6722 movement is considered a good workhorse, the watch is not ISO certified for diving, though suitable for swimming. Unless a purple dial is specifically desired, other color options are recommended. On balance, owners rate the Orient AC0Q-40 Diver Watch highly for its appealing design and value proposition in a compact package.
