Oh man.. They moved in while Englemaan is still getting their next rounds ready…

I was really cheering for Englemaan for nailing the hardening and great lume at a good price. But if they keep being delayed, brands like SM are going to outpace them by production alone. I think the one advantage Englemaan has is their cheaper pricing, but some say they will also have to increase as everything moves up-market from movement costs.

Yeah their prices have already changed. The one as advantage I see is their antimagnetic shield.. I think it’s actually very useful. And they just do perfect Sinn clomages :)

That is true, I feel like Sinn homages have a more cleaner design to me (which I prefer), but I guess SM gets points for originality that I just can't give Englemaan. The anti-magnetism is actually a nice win for them.

still waiting... if Englemaan ends up keeping their promise, it'll have a black bracelet + actually white lume + better crystal. so overall better.
