What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Breitling Super Chronomat Automatic 38

Owners widely praise the Breitling Super Chronomat Automatic 38 for its unique 38mm size, beautiful dial, and highly polished case and bracelet. Some owners, however, note the bracelet would benefit from micro-adjustment for a better fit, and a few express concern that the case feels substantial. One owner reported inconsistent power reserve, barely reaching 36 hours, and poor timekeeping that persisted after service attempts. Overall, owners appreciate the Breitling Super Chronomat Automatic 38 for its striking aesthetics and distinctive sizing, despite some concerns regarding bracelet adjustability and reported timekeeping issues.

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 comfortable wearability, elegant design, and appealing price point for its handmade processes, with an 800 vickers hardened case resisting scratches well. Some owners report the Sellita SW200-1 movement's rotor is noticeable and the watch lacks lume. Significant wait times, potentially exceeding two years, are a frequently cited drawback. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 1 highly for its exceptional enamel dial and handcrafted aesthetic at the price.

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.
