Great service from the company. Ordered my watch and it arrived around 5 days later. I was kept informed of progress as the watch made its way to the UK. Thank you.

I love the vintage vibe of this watch. It looks superb on wrist, and is very comfortable to wear. So far, I have no adverse comments.
The Merlin Twin Time represents great value for money.
I did wonder if the watch face would appear cluttered, given the fact it has 3 complications, but I’m happy to say, this only adds to its great looks.
I’m very happy with my watch, and the service was also great.

After a few years, this has become my favourite watch to wear whilst fly-fishing, it has a quiet retro look that makes it a pleasure to have on. The only downside to this watch, is that my daughter has taken to 'borrowing' it, guess I need to purchase a second Merlin!

Belle montre simple et élégante; finalement intemporelle.
Je la porte tous les jours et la trouve très robuste

I love my Techné Merlin watch. It’s stylishly rugged with a nostalgic flair, and perfect for an aviation buff like me. (Yeah, I’ve even named my dog Vickers.) It’s become my daily wear timepiece.

I've not worn it yet. I've some 70 watches and I actually forgot I'd received the Marlin Looks good, will get to try it sometime in the future.

Hi, I use this watch mainly for my favorite sports like hiking, cycling and so on. As the watch has high visibility which is good for such occasions. Also the size of the watch fits nicely to my wrist. So I love this watch!
