What do people think of these new norquin watches

I think the price of 4150 chf is a bit steep for my pockets for a relative microbrand compared to my fxd, GS in similar price range

What’s ur color

Black FXD FTW but I'm biased 😆.

I'd be happy if I had a Pitzmann. Of the Norqains I like the pistachio panda best. Love the unobtrusive colour matched date wheel.

I don't have one, but they do look very nice, with good specs. But just comparing it to what seem to be similar offerings, the price seems to be higher than I would expect. For example a Brellum Duobox Classic (which is COSC certified) is $3025 compared to $4550 for the Norqain. Union Glashütte Belisar is $3353, And an Ernest Borel Retro is $1955. All of which are using ETA/Valjoux 7750 movements and have similar designs.

I like Ernest borell but can’t seem to go on website to have a look, those pushers are what I am looking to try

Too expensive for what they are, IMO.

I'm interested but unsure as every image of their watch is just that, an image. I tried to google search an actual photo of their chronos with no success.

I can’t find the movement on the official website . I find I can’t do a quartz movement not cause I am a snob I just don’t like the click or mechanomovement cause I don’t know if my watch is ticking. The only brand I can give a pass for movement is Baltic mr01 cause the dail itself is worth the price and I enjoyed the mr01 and sold it when I had a good offer. So I need to know it is a reliable myota movement or seiko before I purchase

Norqain are great but I’m pretty happy with my Adventure Sport Chronograph

I find the brand quite expensive

I can’t seem to work out if this is a microbrand as they managed to play mark walberg to wear their skeleton watch. Their price is up there with Tudor bb Chrono a watch I can’t sell till now. Given I have bought 3 Chrono recently won’t be buying this

I love the pistachio. Went to their site and saw something new. They will charge your card in installments of like 375 per month. No credit app no klarna. This is nuts but very smart on their part. I may actually get it. If everyone starts doing this I’ll be broke 😂 I think I’m going to get it 😭
