Reviews

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

anOrdain Model 2

The anOrdain Model 2 is widely praised for its exquisite, handmade Grand Feu enamel dial, with owners comparing its quality to traditional Japanese urushi dials. Reviewers highlight the dial's custom typeface and syringe hands, as well as the simple, rugged 36mm steel case inspired by field watches. The manual-wind Sellita SW210-1 movement is noted for its smooth winding action. Some minor criticisms include the lack of a running seconds hand and a minute track, and the AR coating's glare. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 highly for its stunning enamel dial and excellent value.

From video reviewers

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