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.

TAG Heuer Connected Calibre E5

Owners widely criticize the TAG Heuer Connected Calibre E5 for its high price, with some finding its components and assembly not justified by the $2000 cost. Several owners report significant issues with battery drain, with Wear OS identified as a primary culprit, and some experience frequent bugs and software update problems, leading to regret over their purchase. One owner noted the lume on the mechanical module lasts only about five minutes. On balance, owners rate the TAG Heuer Connected Calibre E5 poorly due to its high price and reliability concerns.
