Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

IWC Schaffhausen Iw459801 Portofino Automatic Day Night

Owners widely praise the IWC Schaffhausen Portofino for its classy, understated aesthetic and elegant design, with some finding it a "lifetime watch" and a spark of joy. The clean dial and classic dress watch appeal are frequently highlighted, and one owner noted the movement as reliable and accurate. However, opinions on size vary across the line, with some finding larger variants too big and wishing for smaller options, while others with smaller wrists found a 40mm size perfect. One owner of a different Portofino variant reported it losing nearly 10 seconds a day. Overall, owners and reviewers appreciate the IWC Schaffhausen Portofino for its elegant dress watch appeal and refined aesthetic.

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.
