Reviews

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

anOrdain Model 2 Fumé

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 Fumé for its exquisite, handcrafted Grand Feu enamel dial, noting its depth, texture, and unique Fumé effect. The Sellita SW210-1 manual movement is reported to keep good time, with accuracy around +/- 2 seconds per day. The 36mm steel case is considered a thoughtful design, though some find this size too small for a tool watch aesthetic. The 50m water resistance is considered low, and the sapphire crystal can exhibit significant glare. Some minor imperfections on the artisanal dial are noted, and the flat crown is described as feeling unfinished. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 Fumé highly for its exceptional enamel dial and thoughtful design at the price point.

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.
