Mahesh introduces Anoma, a brand aiming to deliver quality timepieces with a primary focus on sculptural case design at an accessible price point. His review highlights the brand's refreshing design language, drawing inspiration from 1950s Parisian furniture, and details the watch's aesthetic and technical specifications.
I love the hidden crown in the case recess shows the meticulous focus to maintain the consistency of design language.
Complementing the case, the dial quality is impeccable - with 3 layer lacquer, the shades of Blues is stunning.
The twin-tone dial brings a level of symmetry and asymmetric consistent to the overall timepiece.
While the color scheme and dial is gorgeous, personally I think Cardinal index are a tad bolder and could have been further refined IMHO.
Of course, the primary focus of the timepiece is on the design, so a good quality and proven Sellita SW100 movement powers the timepiece - helping to achieve the price point.

WR : 50 meters / 164 feet / 5 ATM.

Personally I like the idea of a very refined design being the central focus of the timepiece and overall these elements are kept very consistent through and through...At first glance I thought the shape resembled a guitar pick! Cheers, Filip
Unconventually shaped watches seem to be all the rage right now, so many new watches with oddball shaped cases in the last few months...
This watch is more creative in many ways than many new independents charging much more than these
honestly last two years, we can hardly see anything innovative sub-30k price point.
