Tusenö Shellback exceeded my expectations

I was not overly grabbed by this watch in all honesty upon release and all the reviews left me luke warm. After borrowing a copy I've changed my mind, it's really good with all the right influences. Worth checking out in person if you can.

Nice review. I just saw the V2 preorder and I like how they did the sand which dial a lot. The only thing I’m still hesitant on is the lume. For the price, I wonder if it beats watches from Phoibos and boldr. I’m still fairly new to collecting so I’m trying to do as much research as possible before I get my first diver watch 😁

Did you pull the trigger on the pre-order ? I'm considering a pre-order as well.

In the end no :/ I think it will be a cool watch but I decided that pre-orders are still not the way to go. If I don’t like the watch I’m not sure what they’d do with returns etc. I’ll wait for reviews 😁

I get your point. Although with Tusenö I have to say I feel quite confident buying/pre-ordering as they seem to be serious about their customer service. They don't seem to have customers who are not happy with their purchase either.

But yeah, I'm going back and forth about that purchase at the moment.
