Reviews

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

Farer LISSOM

Owners widely praise the Farer LISSOM for its beautiful and bold designs, with multiple sources highlighting its slim 7.95mm case and elegant 38mm dimensions. Reviewers and owners alike appreciate the vibrant dial colors, intricate detailing like the subsidiary seconds display, and the horizontally brushed case side. The manual-wind La Joux-Perret D100 movement is noted, with one owner reporting a breakage after overwinding but receiving excellent customer service. Some owners find the 38mm size a bit small for their wrist, and the numeral orientation on the dial is a minor point of discussion, with one owner observing blue numerals appearing nearly black in certain light. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Farer LISSOM highly for its attractive, slim design and value proposition.

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 elegant design, comfortable wearability, and scratch-resistant hardened case. Some owners appreciate the 38mm size and its excellent fit on average wrists. However, significant wait times, potentially exceeding two years, are a notable drawback. A few reviewers mention minor quirks of its handmade nature, such as dial taper or dial feet visibility in certain lighting, and one owner found the strap buckle uncomfortable. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 1 highly for its stunning, handmade enamel dial and excellent value for its artisanal craftsmanship.

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.
