03The community take

Owners talk.

“

Owners widely praise the Orologi Calamai for its unique concept of using recycled fighter jet turbine steel and its compelling collaborations with the Italian Air Force, finding the founder's storytelling refreshing. Reviewers note the 38mm case size is a welcome departure from oversized pilot watches, featuring a simple yet attractive mostly brushed finish with a polished bezel side. The typography on the registers is criticized by some as too tall and bold, and the logo scaling is considered poor with excessive spacing. The 4:30 date window is disliked, with recessed subdials casting harsh shadows on it, though the large minutes on the 3 o'clock subdial are appreciated, as are the applied indices, hands, and overall color palette for their crispness and good composition. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Orologi Calamai highly for its unique material story and thoughtful design elements, despite some critiques of its typography and date window placement.
