Been getting a lot of ads for these watches on my social medias. They seem reasonably priced, and I like their simplicity. However, just have a question about their quality and durability. Would also be interested to hear opinions of similar alternatives in the same price range $200-$400. Thank you all!

    I actually have been messaging them and they’re super friendly! I bought a watch from them and will be picking it up in January at their store in Japan while I’m on vacation. From what I researched and heard there are other brands in the price range that may be better to be honest. For me it’s more of the story traveling around Japan and picking the watch up.

      They seem to be really solid. While some have complained about QC issues with their Miyota movements, they no longer even sell them with their 002.

      I think the big draw to Kuoe is their small size. Not many brands stick to the 35mm movement.

      Though I do bet their customer support gets slammed with, “Do you make these in men’s sizes?”
