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.

Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé

Owners widely appreciate the Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé for its historical representation and the use of two lume colors. The blended branding is considered tasteful by some, though one owner expressed indecision about the logo and crown position. The 37mm bronze case is designed to develop a patina, as are the bronze hands, complementing the gradient matte black dial with faux-patina lume. The Miyota 82S5 automatic movement, however, is noted by owners to be noisy and rattly, with one owner reporting +7 seconds per day accuracy and a 40-hour power reserve. Overall, owners rate the Vario 1945 D12 Bronze Fumé positively for its aesthetic appeal and historical narrative, despite the noisy movement.

From video reviewers

The bronze case developing a patina is a key aesthetic feature. Reviewers found the value proposition to be good at $428 USD.
