Reviews

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

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 elegant design, comfortable wearability, and scratch-resistant hardened case. Some owners appreciate the 38mm size and its excellent fit on average wrists. However, significant wait times, potentially exceeding two years, are a notable drawback. A few reviewers mention minor quirks of its handmade nature, such as dial taper or dial feet visibility in certain lighting, and one owner found the strap buckle uncomfortable. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 1 highly for its stunning, handmade enamel dial and excellent value for its artisanal craftsmanship.

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.

Yema Wristmaster Slim Small Seconds CMM.29

Owners widely praise the Yema Wristmaster Slim Small Seconds CMM.29 for its slim 9.5mm case, unique nature-inspired dial, and brushed steel finish. The micro-rotor movement is noted for its 4Hz beat rate and 42-hour power reserve, regulated to -/+ 10 seconds per day. Some owners report concerns regarding the movement and warranty process, while a reviewer questioned the value proposition at its price point and noted minor finishing inconsistencies on a prototype. On balance, the Yema Wristmaster Slim Small Seconds CMM.29 is highly regarded by owners for its distinctive design and comfortable wearability.

From video reviewers

The 9mm thickness provides significant wrist comfort. The CMM.29 micro-rotor movement is a shared point of interest.
