anOrdain Model 2 FumévsCIGA Design TOURBILLON

Owners widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 Fumé for its stunning, hand-crafted enamel dial, with one owner reporting near-zero accuracy deviation. Reviewers highlight the dial's unique, deep, and rich Fumé effect, noting each is distinct. Some owners find the £1500 price point high, and one questions its field watch classification due to a "designery font," suggesting it leans more towards a dress watch. A reviewer points out the flat crown feels unfinished and clashes with the case's organic shape. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 Fumé highly for its exceptional enamel dial craftsmanship.

The CIGA Design TOURBILLON is praised for its avant-garde design, well-finished titanium case, and the spectacle of its in-house tourbillon movement, offering a unique entry into this complication at a relatively accessible price point. Owners and reviewers highlight the visual engagement provided by flame-blued titanium parts and guilloche casebacks, with some noting the wearability of the 45mm titanium case due to its 11.65mm thickness and updated strap design. However, movement performance is a point of contention, with one owner reporting degraded accuracy as the power reserve depletes and a lack of tactile feedback during winding, hacking, or a power reserve indicator. Readability can be challenging due to dark dials and hands that can be difficult to see, and water resistance is limited to 30 meters.
