What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

anOrdain Model 3 Method

Owners widely report the anOrdain Model 3 Method's dial is unique, deep, and colorful, with a textured surface that plays with light. Reviewers praise its craftsmanship and elegant case, noting a slim 39mm profile. Some owners find the skinny lugs less appealing, and one forum member preferred the dial typography of an earlier model and disliked the Model 3 case. While no longer considered a value proposition due to price increases, the quality is deemed worth the cost. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 3 Method highly for its unique dial and elegant case craftsmanship.

Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH

The Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH is praised for its well-made construction and vintage-inspired aesthetic, featuring a 37mm case, a balanced three-register dial, and a quality bracelet and clasp suitable for daily wear. It includes a manual-wind Sellita SW510M movement with a 63-hour power reserve and offers 100 meters of water resistance in a thin package. Reviewers note a unique grooved bi-directional bezel, which is described as an atypical but potentially divisive choice for a chronograph. On balance, reviewers find the Lorca MODEL No.2 CHRONOGRAPH to be a well-made watch that successfully blends vintage charm with contemporary design.

From video reviewers

The Lorca Model No.2 Chronograph features a notable guilloché bezel that adds vintage flair to its design. The watch is powered by a Swiss Sellita SW510M manual movement, offering 63 hours of power reserve. A potential drawback is the relatively small 37mm size.
