Looks cool and good specs. I considered the same for a while but I ended up picking up a Monta noble.

I think they’re cool and a great option.
I think back to Jody on Just One More Watch (the best Microbrand reviewer hands down) and his take on them. It was something like, “in my original review I said it was a great watch, but I wasn’t sure if I really loved it. I’m still not sure if I love it, but I still have it and I wear it an awful lot, so I guess I actually do love it even if it feels weird to say that.”

I have two of these - they’re each 4 years old, battle-tested and keeping perfect time. Ronda movement in a US assembled case... very good 800-1k range watch for a wide range of wearability.
