What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Venezianico Arsenale Bizantino

The Venezianico Arsenale Bizantino is widely praised for its unique Byzantine art engraving across the case and bracelet, and its elegant gray fumé dial. Owners find it extremely comfortable and appreciate its solid build quality for the €900 price point. However, reviewers note that the bracelet screws are unattractive up close, and the seconds hand can be difficult to see in certain lighting conditions, impacting legibility. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Venezianico Arsenale Bizantino highly for its distinctive artistic design and comfortable wearability.

anOrdain Model 2

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 for its exceptional, handmade Grand Feu enamel dial, often described as stunning and liquid-like, with a custom typeface and syringe hands. The simple, rugged 36mm steel case is noted for its organic lines and comfortable wearability, and the hand-winding Sellita SW-210 movement offers a smooth winding action. The watch is considered to offer impressive value for its dial work. Some reviewers note the lack of a running seconds hand, a minute track on certain versions, and limited lume on the hands. Water resistance is rated at 5atm, and one reviewer found the AR coating prone to glare. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 highly for its exquisite enamel dial and strong value proposition.

From video reviewers

The hand-enameled dial is a significant strength. The watch's inclusion in the MoMA Store is also noted.
