Impossible Watch Company Art DecovsKUOE OLD SMITH 90-007

The Impossible Watch Company Art Deco is praised for its cool, awesome design that captures the art deco look. Owners appreciate the "exploding numerals" and the curved case that contours the wrist, noting it wears "a bit like a modern smart watch." Some find the Seagull 1700 manual wind movement awkward at the $675 price point. On balance, owners rate the Impossible Watch Company Art Deco highly for its distinctive design and comfortable wearability, despite some reservations about the manual wind movement at its price.

Owners widely praise the KUOE OLD SMITH for its distinctive vintage aesthetic, with specific admiration for the blue hands that pop in sunlight and the satisfying chunky numerals. The watch is considered a discreet dress or office option, with one owner cherishing it despite an initial defective crown. The 38mm size is noted as a perfect fit by one owner, while another finds the 35mm size and 12mm thickness can be problematic on smaller wrists. The $635 price is considered high for the NH38 movement and standard specifications, though some believe the premium is justified by Kuoe's unique design language and microbrand status. Accuracy is reported at -5 seconds per day, but the Super-LumiNova is weak. Overall, owners rate the KUOE OLD SMITH highly for its unique design and cherished vintage aesthetic at the price.
