I really do like the Metric; colours and a retro vibe.
And the guy behind the brand is genuinely a nice guy. That makes a difference too.
Here’s a post I made a little while back with more of the line up.
That said, these new Super Metrics without the date window is definitely what I’d been waiting on.
There are some other cool iterations in their pipeline, so I’d say if none of the current line up jump out at you then just keep them on your radar.
Micro brand fun !
Do you suffer from watch fatigue? Do you believe that almost all watches from the more established brands are shamelessly overpriced? Do you feel that most established brands have lost imagination and creativeness? Do you just want to have fun wearing a n...
Beautiful Habring2.
From a horological and artisanal point of view they have long outgrown the typical micro-brand world characterized by complete outsourcing of parts,movements and assembly.
Beautiful!
Like the three of them, especially the second piece. Always nice to find great value for the money.
Hey Gerard, I couldn’t agree more on your Microbrands post!
You sent me down the Heinrich rabbit hole with that watch, the dial color and material are beautiful and something as simple with the screw heads lining up on the dial, demonstrates attention to detail. The Awake dial is equally beautiful and I wasn’t awa...
Yes,a large amount of great brands and watches.
Waiting for the perfect one may result in missing the many near perfect ones already available ).
Looking good Gerard!
Micro brands are an excellent reminder you don’t need to spend a lot of money on a watch to get enjoyment from it. Mine are gone for now, but that will probably change in the future since the price point makes them super attractive and addicting -Halios S...
You had a great selection of mainly German brands.
I recently saw a Dekla Military watch with a nicely finished Unitas movement and was very impressed !
Of all mentioned, the Stowa Flieger was my favorite
With the Halios Seaforth with “Abyss Blue” dial a close second ! 👍🏻
Those are all really nice examples! The purple is really attractive.
Here’s mine, I have to make a dedicated post one of these days! Under my new loupe: ...
That is a great looking Zelos.
Looking forward to more posts about this lovely watch!
Thanks for starting this!
Fatigue, lack of imagination, availability....should resonate with quite a few of us. I started looking at the micros in recent years and was pleasantly surprised with several for their creativity, customer service, and enthusiasm. So here we go: ...
I just read an article on the Awake Son Mai.
Wonderful lacquer dial and generally a very nice package at an attractive price. And the added bonus of a unique approach to lume! Like...Wow! image: Fratello Here's my contribution to the Micro Party... ...
How about some Brew Watches?
Here’s a flavour of their new Super Metric; three of the new dials. I own one; these are show / display pieces. Will post separately on the one I own. For now, all I’ll say I really like the design of these. And have done since the original Retro Metric. ...

I’ve also owned a few Furlan Marri since the beginning.
Hard to beat at the original price points ($350 each), and even today these are still good value in my opinion. I wear the grey the most. ...
The price points are obviously a bit more than those first release watches.
I bought those on the Kickstarter campaign several years ago. But I’ve seen and handled many of the current line up and to me they remain very interesting.
