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 Fumé

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.

anOrdain Model 1 (Group Buy)

Owners widely praise the anOrdain Model 1 (Group Buy) for its exceptional vitreous enamel dial, custom typography, and elegant, handmade aesthetic. The dial's deep colors and light-reflecting properties are frequently highlighted as a standout feature, with crisp printing and legible layouts. One owner notes the case finishing is basic but well-executed with a high-polish finish and defined lugs. The watch is considered worth the wait and looks better in person, becoming a daily wearer for some. However, long wait times from deposit to delivery, sometimes nearly two years, are a significant drawback. The Sellita SW200-1 movement is standard with a 38-hour power reserve, and one reviewer wished the 12.3mm case was slimmer. Another owner found the case plain and the buckle thin, while also noting white hands could crowd dial numbers on a GMT variant. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting good timekeeping and another noting the watch is keeping good time.

From video reviewers

The enamel dial is a standout feature. Legibility issues were addressed by reluming the hands.
