Vortic Watch Company The Springfield 185 (45mm)

Owner voices are mixed on value and sizing for the Vortic Watch Company The Springfield 185 (45mm). One owner appreciates that the watch is American made with American vintage parts, but finds the 45mm case too large for a vintage-style piece and the price steep, comparing it unfavorably to roughly $4,000 buys of Omega coaxial or Grand Seiko Spring Drive models. A second owner, who has two of these, describes Vortic's owner as straightforward and friendly and says a minor issue with his first watch was resolved quickly by the company. On balance, owners are positive about the brand's American heritage and customer service, but the case size and price are the main reasons they hesitate.
