In the whole world of watch making industry, there are many famous watch brands that being known by most of watch lovers and collectors. However, for the Feldo Luxury watch, as a newcomer, it is still a new star that only few people have ever heard about. Personally, it is a group I haven't personally heard of before. That not because I missed the memo, I don't think I was expected to have heard about it. They are getting into the world of timepieces with an authentic collection starting with the less than exclusive Feldo 1-1 R/B and 1-2 B/B watch models. Each makes lots of adoption of carbon fiber and has only minor differences between the two versions. The case is 45mm wide and is crafted within an octagonal shape with a round dial. Feldo has adopted the "world's thinnest" carbon fiber plates on the dial. hands are large and circular - thinner forms of shapes I have viewed on high-end Ulysse Nardin timepieces. Intriguing looking seconds hands as well. The dial is also designed with the date (once again displayed in a less than traditional manner). There is so much carbon fiber on the timepiece, it is as if the material is still as fashionable as it was just until recently.
The gold tones on the timepiece are red gold plated, while the case is mainly PVD black steel. Inside the model is an automatic Soprod A10 movement which is seeable via the sapphire crystal caseback window. It is crafted with a black or white calf leather strap. Price is 2,775 euros. I have said all that I still have no idea about what to make of these watches. Although there is a certain capability to the design, it lacks a level of maturity I prefer in timepieces that are in this range. It looks like the project of an ambitious industrial designer hunger to make something innovative. A laudable goal, however the design just can't compete with similar offerings from more prestigious watch making companies at this price range for style and refinement. Nothing will come to this world in a perfect way; therefore, I will continually look into Feldo's future watch pieces closely.
