A review from worn & wound that introduced Bauhaus style watch from an independent watch maker. The watch come with 2 different movement, either sea-gull ST2130 or Miyota 9015. only slight different in terms of pricing. Black and white dial available without any logo, watch case 39mm. And the second/ hour hands are hand-painted blue.  Thought & comments ??

meh.
the date spoils it.
pretty boring looking caseback too, with just 'kent wang' laser etched into it.
plus it doesnt do much to make itself stand out from the other bauhaus influenced pieces, or even the wannabes like daniel wellington...which actually looks better  ;D

somehow as i look at the design longer it gives me the funny feeling like this is an incomplete watch both from front and back.

Too empty and the date kill it.

Black looks better to me, but there are many many more Bauhaus design watches out there, i seriously dont find this attractive or value.

If im gonna choose, i will prefer the 9015, the price is kinda competitive too.

Overall, if you like it and fit your budget then why not, but to be truth, look for something else.

Kent Wang is not a watchmaker, they are a men's haberdasher. The watch line is just a part of their offering so not surprised if it looks a tad generic.

Guess people should stick to their pocket squares than watches.

Not feeling right. Something is missing on the watch. I like clean watch but seem like something is missing.. Just my 2 cents. :)

I think the missing part here is logo and some writing,its too clean...the decoration of caseback futher drags it down

There are a lot more worse looking watches out there, for a lot more money.

I don't mind wearing this. If they have a date-less version, I'd go for it.

I think it could have been just a solid case-back. Movement doesn't look too exciting, though it may be reliable.

Just my 2 cents.
