New watch: Traska Summiteer 36mm
Recent Comments
I love field watches, so I give this to Vaer. I wish Vaer and Baltic weren't up against each other though. Feels like 2 possible champs are fighting in the early brackets.
To me a microbrand should hit that sweet spot of design, specs, finishing, price. Ming is undeniably beautiful, but the price of the only watch they currently sell is $30k, which means it is something I could never own. Because of that, I vote Norqain. I want to vote for a watch I could actually acquire.
Gotta give it to Straton. While the Paulin + anOrdain collab is gorgeous, Paulin only makes 1 other watch style. Straton's not my cup of tea, but at least they have more variety and they are trying some unique case designs.
I am grateful for a reason to learn about watch microbrands that others like @AllTheWatches have already vetted for being of good quality and provenance. Who wins almost doesn't matter. The fun of voting makes me research these new to me watch brands =).
