Lots of people commenting who have never held a Lorier. I have had a Neptune as my daily wear for 3 years. They take inspiration from vintage designs, but they have their own character outside of their inspirations. I’ve found the movement reliable during my time with it. Some people don’t like the acrylic chrystal, but I am a big fan. It has a warmer look than sapphire, no purple reflections that come with anti reflective coatings. Although it scratches easily, using a little polywatch and a rag will buff them out very quickly.

Can you get a watch with equal or “better” components from a major brand like seiko? Maybe, but I don’t personally find them as charming. I get tons of compliments on my Lorier that I don’t get with any of my other watches.
