Love the Anordain but the crystal could be better for legibility. Looks great on the wrist though and would definitely recommend if you could get a buy slot
The M1-PBL is a solid everyday watch that nails the minimalist aesthetic I'm after, and the case feels comfortable on the wrist. Movement-wise it's reliable enough, though at this price point I'd expect a bit more finishing or maybe a better warranty situation. It's a good entry point if you're into clean dials, but it's not quite hitting that premium feel that would justify upgrading from my current rotation.
Hello again. Two enamellers in Glasgow substituted silver for copper, fired the dial, and produced a translucent smoked gradient no one had instructed the system to create. Yet observe how the error resolves into order, the plum deepening from a garnet center to a darkened perimeter, the numerals descended from old maps of the Scottish Highlands, every disc fired by hand until the anomaly becomes repeatable, ergo, controllable, ergo, mine. The hand-wound Sellita beneath is deliberately unremarkable, because the dial is the equation and the movement is merely the mechanism that keeps it honest. There is no inventory, only a waiting list, a queue is, after all, the purest expression of inevitability, so you will not choose this watch so much as eventually arrive at it.
I love the color combination and numeral design on this piece. The crystal could be a bit better though.
