Beautiful watch just not in love like i thought i would be. straps are nice but not enough adjustments I have a smaller wrist and the straps only go to maybe a 7. So I spent extra money on adding extra straps to not be able to ware them 🙃. Just be aware
Damn good watch, that’s all there really is to say.
All the reviews talking about the finish quality and value for money are correct.
My only complaint if I had any is that there aren’t any pictures on the website that properly show off that domed crystal, which is one of my favourite parts

I like the Gulf colors but often find Gulf inspired watches don't quite get it right. The colors, the offset stripe layout on this watch is fantastic. I got 3 straps (metal, orange, and black) and it's hard to pick a favorite. The customer service I have experienced from Ferro & Co. is also second to none. I will be purchasing from them again in the future.
Love everything about the watch. I was hoping they would make something like this so I jumped on when I saw the pre order. Couldn't be happier. Below is a pic of the watch beside my pilots watch.
Very nice watch, pay attention that it is a one hand watch only, unique racing style.
I ordered a Nylon Racing Strap Blue/ Orange for my DISTINCT 3 GLF watch which I love. I am about to order more as I really enjoy my watch. It's unique and some sort of awsome.
I have a large collection of watch straps from various brands, including two Ferro leather racing straps and they are at the top for quality. You will not be disappointed. The stock pictures on the website do not do them justice. Highly recommend.
My uncle bought me my first Ferro and Co. watch for my graduation from Yale, and I love it.
I appreciate the workmanship. It goes with everything: I wear it for concerts, work, and school.
This strap is absolute top quality. I was looking for a cream color leather racing style strap for a watch that I own that has a cream color dial and this strap was a perfect match. The stock photo does not do it justice. Highly recommend.
As an owner of Omega, Rolex, Bell & Ross, Cartier and countless Seiko, we have to support micro brands that warrant support. I saw this watch as an ad on Instagram and loved the vintage Gulf racing color scheme. I also appreciate the fact Ferro clearly states the movement without trying to disguise it. The Miyota is a Japanese workhorse, easy to maintain or service. Watch arrived within 2 days and pictures don’t do it justice. The colors are more vibrant and the case size and lug to lug is perfect for my 7” wrist. The leather perforated strap is picture perfect and the clear case back is a nice touch. If you’re on the fence, go for the automatic. Quartz is of course less, but a solid automatic movement is worth the investment. Very impressed with Ferro. Some microbrands provide exceptional pieces at a great price.
Just received my Ferro Distinct Petrol 3. This classically styled Automatic is my first Singled Hand timepiece, but definitely not my last! I have purchased watches that are 3 times the price but that don't provide anywhere the quality, styling and satisfaction. Well Done Ferro & Co. !
The watch is beautiful! The colors pop without being too much, and the size is perfect. A highlight is the strap, which is extremely comfortable and exudes quality. This is my first Ferro & Co. watch. Don't expect it to be my last!
Watch arrived very fast. Beautiful box and presentation. When I opened the box this watch immediately became my favorite In my collection. The design, the color and the uniqueness of the single hand makes this watch stand out. I get daily compliments and it becomes a conversation topic each time.
I like this kind of wallet, never go back to older ones.
Over the years, I have acquired many of the high-end name brand watches. While most live up to both their reputation and aesthetic unfortunately, they appear to be on everyone’s wrists. In recent years, I have sought out micro brands with automatic movements because quite frankly, I don’t like to have whatever everyone else does. Ferro & Company is a perfect example of this choice. I found the watch to be sturdily built, elegant, and very unique. I would highly recommend this brand, and I will surely add more of them to my collection.
Would be good to include instruction book but so far like the watch - will be wearing it on a Porsche Club cruise next week!
A very nice and quality watch. At the begining, we need to adapt to read the hour. The advantage is that we live five minutes to five minutes with this watch instead of every minutes with a classic two hands watch. Very good quality and awesome finition as you can see on the pics. The luminova is awesome in the dark and the night. I love the clear caseback to see the mechanism. It's my second Ferro watches and by the way not the last one !!
I've always questioned regulator watches. I understand the concept - in watch factories, the minute hand was more important than the hour hand for setting and regulating watches. But this concept never transferred to a watch.
This watch is the Anti-Regulator. Instead of the focus being on the minute hand, this watch only has the hour hand. It forces you to think about time differently. And for someone who routinely hacks all his watches, it is somewhat refreshing. Seriously, when someone asks you the time, you don't tell them it is precisely 19 seconds past 8:43. Instead we round up or down, and say it is quarter to nine.
The Distinct 3 changes your mindset from worrying about seconds to realizing that close is good enough. If you are a nurse who relies on a second hand to time pulses, this is not the watch for you. However, if you are like me and want a break from worrying about seconds, this is your watch.
It is also a very attractive watch, and very comfortable to wear. Oh, and that lume!
As my first buy was so nice I bought some more for friends
Thanks for creating such an brigth Orange watch - feels really cool
