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 2 Porcelain

Owners widely praise the anOrdain Model 2 Porcelain for its artistic haute horological experience, sublime design, and exceptional craftsmanship, highlighting the hand-finished, carved, and curved lugs. Reviewers note the deep, glossy black porcelain dial with pad-printed gold numerals and hand-painted lume, though dimples from the traditional production process are visible in certain lighting. The watch features a 39.5mm brushed steel case, a sapphire caseback revealing the La Joux-Perret G101 movement with a 68-hour power reserve, and 50-meter water resistance. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the anOrdain Model 2 Porcelain highly for its unique dial material and detailed case finishing at its price point.

From video reviewers

The anOrdain Model 2 Porcelain's handmade enamel dial is a notable strength, praised by multiple reviewers for its unique, subtle color shift. A potential drawback is the relatively modest water resistance of 50 meters, which may be a trade-off for the watch's focus on aesthetics. Reviewers disagree on the lug-to-lug fit, with some finding it comfortable and others noting it's somewhat large.

Seiko King Seiko KSK

The King Seiko KSK is widely praised for its refined finishing, with owners and reviewers noting its sharp case, faceted lugs, and well-executed dial indices, often comparing its polishing favorably to Grand Seiko. Enthusiasts appreciate its slim, retro design, with some stating it wears smaller than its official size due to the cushion case and close-to-the-wrist feel. The use of the slimline Calibre 6L35 movement is seen as an upgrade, maintaining the watch's slender profile, though some owners express concern over the price point and the perceived value of the movement. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner reporting +5 to +7 seconds per day, while another notes +15/-10 seconds per day. Some owners have noted minor quality control issues such as misaligned screws or a burr on a hand. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the King Seiko KSK highly for its exceptional case and dial finishing at its price point.
