Model 2 verdict? Early days but I like it.I don’t have any other divers of that compressor case style so it is different. The bracelet is good quality. Sized by taking out 1 link in 2 minutes as it is screw pins. 6 micro adjust holes.
Higher end movement than anything else I have – Miyota 9039
Saphire glass.
Good design features. Drilled lugs for easy strap changes. The hour indice markers on the face are actually holes cut on the upper dial which look black as they expose the black lower dial.
Both crowns are easy to operate and screw down easily without any issue catching the thread.
Nice legible design. I do shifts in a car an have found a couple of my watches can’t always be read at a glance in bad light. I would expect no issue with the Alkin.
Supporting a UK designer.
Happy with the build quality and specs for the price. Probably down to whether you like the look.
