Nice people who work there, innovative things with materials, tough as heck, solid movements. Their issue always comes down to pricing. One could argue they are worth every cent, but sadly, the market disagrees and they get clobbered on the secondary market, which leaves buyers afraid to pull the trigger.
I really like Norqain. I’ve got one of their Adventure Sport Chronographs.
I love the watch that I originally bought at an AD, and I’ve since gotten a bracelet and strap for it and found the brand to be very helpfull, which you can’t say for everyone.
I'm a fan of what they are offering.
I gotta say, I don’t get it. Decent watches, and the Wild One is a cool design, but I can’t understand any justification for their prices. Third-party movements, mid-level finishing, and as far as I can tell, they don’t even have a manufacturing facility. Everything Norqain is doing, Christopher Ward seems to offer at a third the price. What am I missing?

Agreed. If they were half the price, they’d be on my radar.
Not keen on them. I’m not a fan of their design language. Fwiw
If my man Nick Kyrigios is sponsored by them,then it has some future

Not sure CW do an almost shockproof carbon case do they?

I wish I could find a Wild One that's price has been clobbered. They always seem to be close to retail. Until then, my GM2100B will be my golf watch.
Who came first? Norqain? Or Hublot? Cause they kinda look the same to me...
At the right price...
Crazy pricing. Wouldn't even consider them.

They do—check out the Colchester. Very cool watch and also features a recessed crown and a very cool carbon texture. Only 1350 with a COSC SW200.
I would love to have one for the summer months, especially while cycling or playing sports.
Picked up their bronze sports watch in November at their boutique in Singapore. Just had lunch in a mall, and exiting I saw the boutique. The bronze caught my eye and I googled the price. Walked in and tried it on. Was an impulse purchase. It’s the watch I wear most frequently. Most accurate watch I own. The higher priced models do nothing for me.
