What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Citizen Atomic Perpetual A-T

Owners widely praise the Citizen Atomic Perpetual A-T for its handsome appearance, solid fit and finish, comfortable bracelet, and intuitive world time function. Its perpetual calendar and atomic timekeeping are highlighted as major conveniences, maintaining accuracy within 0.5 seconds even without syncing, and owners appreciate its "set & forget" nature and solar charging. The watch features a modest, stylish blue dial with delicate design details and a clutter-free layout, along with high water resistance without a screw-down crown and light titanium construction. Some find the dial unnecessarily busy, and its time zone functionality is noted as less useful outside the US, with atomic sync being less compelling below the equator. Accuracy is reported as +/-15 seconds per month if not syncing, but +/-0 seconds if it syncs via radio signal. Some find the watch a bit on the large side.

anOrdain Model 2

Owners and reviewers widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 for its exceptional, handmade Grand Feu enamel dial, often described as stunning and liquid-like, with a custom typeface and syringe hands. The simple, rugged 36mm steel case is noted for its organic lines and comfortable wearability, and the hand-winding Sellita SW-210 movement offers a smooth winding action. The watch is considered to offer impressive value for its dial work. Some reviewers note the lack of a running seconds hand, a minute track on certain versions, and limited lume on the hands. Water resistance is rated at 5atm, and one reviewer found the AR coating prone to glare. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 highly for its exquisite enamel dial and strong value proposition.

From video reviewers

The hand-enameled dial is a significant strength. The watch's inclusion in the MoMA Store is also noted.
