Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.
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.
Owners widely praise the KUOE ROYAL SMITH 90-006 for its visual appeal and sapphire crystal with AR coating. One owner reports the watch keeps time at approximately +5 seconds per day on the wrist. Some question its value given the Miyota 9039 movement. Overall, owners rate the KUOE ROYAL SMITH 90-006 highly for its aesthetic design and sapphire crystal.
The watch's unique blend of modern and retro elements is a notable strength, with a textured ivory waffle dial and Breguet numerals giving it the look of a vintage watch from the 1950s and 1960s. A potential drawback is the ~$770 USD price point, which is significant for a microbrand. Reviewers disagree on the movement's accuracy, with one reviewer noting it is noisy and another describing it as a "Japanese-manufactured high beat premium automatic movement".
