My first venture into micro-brand territory ....
...with the surprising echo/neutra Rivanera.
Sofar not too impressed with the many micro-brand offerings : a sea of vintage inspired field/dive/chronograph watches that often are in person much less convincing than their Instagram pictures might suggest.
Not so the stunning design study by Italian based echo/neutra with their Rivanera watch.
I have to admit that I did not have the brand on my radar prior the release of this watch...which is completely different from the rest of their portfolio.
However when I first saw pictures I was immediately drawn into the design language and execution.
They also have a grey dial version but my preference was for the black one.
The combination of the sand blasted Ti case with polished edges and the "art deco" inspired dial was simply perfect to me.
And so much better than recent "non-round" watch offerings from some Geneva based company 
))) .
Perfect proportions with 27 x 40 x 5.9 mm ...
... of course also possible due to the use of the slim ETA 7001 "Peseux " movement.
A real delight on the wrist !!!

Quite unusual ,I have received many favorable comments when wearing this watch ....from both men and women !
Even more so if they become aware of the very very fair price point .
Thanks for looking,
Gerard

Thanks Gerard. I wasn’t aware of this brand.
I score the watchđź‘Ťđź‘Ť! Cool looking and great fit. M4
A very wearable rectangular watch
which unfortunately is not always the case with square (Cubitus) and many rectangular watches. Good value and it fits your wrist well.
An interesting discovery. Price seems fair, design and Peseux caliber
round up the attractive offering.
I did not know they already shipped!
I thought they were slated for March/April. Maybe you had an early batch. I fully concur with your comments. It is a breath of fresh air to see a truly new design: this one is very successful. I have the grey on my list of 'maybe's'
The first batch shipped two weeks ago.
I was long time undecided between the grey and black dial : both look great!
Definitely recommended from my side.
The attention to detail is remarkable for this price point.
Beautiful watch and pictures.
The sandblasted Ti case is very well executed. Congrats, and enjoy it.
