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.

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.

Zelos Swordfish 3

Owners widely praise the Zelos Swordfish 3 for its strong value, with reviewers highlighting the textured sandwich dial, Seiko NH35 movement, 200m water resistance, and surprisingly good bracelet. The titanium construction is noted for making the watch compact and comfortable, weighing 117g. Some owners find the dimensions fine on paper and based on experience with other models. One reviewer flagged that legibility can suffer in bright light and bracelet edges are sharp. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Zelos Swordfish 3 highly for its incredible value and fun design, particularly with unique dial options.
