anOrdain x OT Limited Edition Watch

Hold onto your hats because OT: The Podcast has teamed up with everyone's favourite Glaswegian watchmaker, anOrdain, to make not one but two limited edition watches. Top line, the watch is a 39.5mm version of anOrdain's field watch-inspired model 2, with a stunning vitreous enamel dial in off-white or pink, and a distinctive 3,6,9 layout. But to understand the watch, you need to understand anOrdain. This is where Lewis comes in. He talks about the genesis of the anOrdain in 2015, when he posted an ad for an enameler at the local arts college and went about learning the tricky art of enamel watch dials. We find out how design innovation can be the result of happy accidents and find out just what goes into a successful collaboration. We also find out what his favourite part of the new watch is (spoiler — it's the hands) and what he enjoyed most about working with Andy and Felix. But back to the watch. Aside from the obvious details like the dial design and the larger case size, there are smaller touches to appreciate, too — like the seconds hand and track, as well as a caseback with an engraved map of Melbourne, Australia. The OT: Edition is a great example of the 'old crafts new hands' motto of anOrdain, pairing the traditional characteristics of an outdoors watch and anOrdain's expertise and unique typography with a lively colour palette perfectly in line with modern tastes. https://anordain.com/products/model-2-ot-pink https://anordain.com/products/model-2-ot-white Want to be part of the OT: The Podcast community?
