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
High quality strap, looks awesome paired with my AGL2, love the Ferro and Company logo on the buckle! Matches perfectly!
Beautiful watch. Good workmanship. The clock itself is quiet, only the rotor is not very audible, as to be expected from a japanese clock system. The brushed steel of the case comes into its own. The luminova coating of the dial is really easy to see at night. Overall a good watch for the value. / Founder Nr. 123
To be honest I loved it … the strap is amazing compare the price normally with that price you get a bit low quality strap … the case and the movement seems good to me the seconds moves exactly like I wanted dial catchy the orange and blue combination is beautiful… with that price can’t compare and good luck guys
An outstanding addition to my timepiece collection! I’ve been a race car fan for over 50 years and I’m very knowledgeable of the Gulf Livery. Mike
Recently purchased a Distinct 2 single hand watch from Ferro & Company. I couldn’t be happier with the quality and appearance of this beautiful and unusual timepiece. The 44mm domed crystal dial is fashionable yet light weight and comfortable enough to wear all day. Best of all, thanks to the white distinctive time markings and the red single hand, determining the time is as quick and easy as with any traditional watch. If you have been considering adding a single hand watch to your collection, I can assure you the Distinct 2 from Ferro & Company will not disappoint.
