Reviews

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

anOrdain Model 1 Precious Metal

Owners widely praise the build quality and dressy aesthetic of the anOrdain Model 1 Precious Metal. Some owners desire more case definition, suggesting chamfers to complement the dials, while others prefer anOrdain's signature lacquer dials over the galvanized gold and rhodium options for a precious metal variant. One owner experienced a magnetized movement that caused fast running, but anOrdain replaced the watch and allowed an upgrade to a decorated movement. The 18mm lug width is noted as a drawback by one owner. On balance, owners appreciate the anOrdain Model 1 Precious Metal for its solid construction and dress watch appeal, despite some aesthetic preferences and a reported movement issue that was resolved.

Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik

The Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik is praised for its slim, wearable 38mm case with a mix of brushed and polished finishes and a refined Bauhaus dial design. Reviewers note the upgraded Miyota 9015 movement and improved wearability. Some find the optional five-link bracelet too chunky and lacking refinement, with one reviewer noting its accuracy of -10/+30 seconds per day is not for precision enthusiasts. On balance, reviewers rate the Sternglas Naos Pro Automatik highly for its slim case and refined dial design at its price point.

From video reviewers

The Bauhaus design is a strength. The value proposition is a weakness.
