Beautifully designed watch such unusual colour options. This is my second Pinion. Service, response and the attention of Piers are excellent and there will certainly be further Pinions in my collection in the future. Hal Gamble

BEWARE: This review contains box opening and content spoiling! ;-) Cause I kinda "fell in love" with a red dial ATOM 39 ND prototype after seing a picture posted by a watch enthusiast on a FB forum, I contacted Pinion via Instagram to ask them if they were considering putting this red dial Atom in production. They immediately answered that it was not the case but that they might be able to build a custom-made Atom for me with a spare red dial sample (it appeared that it was the last one!). I was obviously interested in this proposal and, within only 10 days (including express overseas shipping) and after a few very friendly email exchanges, the postman rang my doorbell. When I opened the parcel, I immediately felt privileged. The watch box was wrapped in a very classy gift paper, along with the authenticity certificate and a personalized accompanying letter. The cardboard watch box itself is simple but the essential was inside. To begin with, in addition to the warranty card and the instruction leaflet, a very nice and large SELVYT “Pinion” marked cleaning cloth was included in the box, that I really appreciated! The box also contained an awesome "Made in England" high-end "Pinion" marked watch roll made of leather and (I think) cotton fabric, housed in a very nice cotton bag. This noticeably well-made roll may house up to 4 watches and two additional straps or tools. It’s certainly far more useful than most (sometimes as huge as luxurious) watch boxes provided by other watch brands, that often land on our shelves or cupboards! BTW, inside the watch roll was (obviously) the watch itself, but also a swiss-made Bergeon professional spring bar tool. Another very nice attention from Pinion! As for the watch (that is the essential, isn’t it?), it’s STUNNING! The (prototype specific) red dial and rehaut are absolutely beautiful and the lume hours marker fit very nicely. The hands integrate with the (no date) dial perfectly. As a reminder, my Atom 39 ND is equipped with a prototype dial that is different from the final design (not only the color but also the layout). The finish of the watch, that is designed, finished, assembled and tested in England, is remarkable. The 39mm (sapphire glass equipped) matt blasted steel case looks as solid as it’s beautiful, and the beautiful “Atom” engraved caseback (made from matt blasted steel too) displays the serial number of the watch, that is a nice detail. The “Atom” engraved crown is large, comfortable and operates smoothly. Even if the Atom is (obviously) not a diver watch, its water resistance is 10 ATM (100 metres) that is amply sufficient for a safe daily use. The ETA 2824-2 “élaboré” automatic movement that powers the Atom is a Swiss-made reliable, precise and easy to service movement. It’s a movement with a date complication, so the Atom ND is a “ghost date” watch (i.e. the second position of the crown setting – dedicated to the date adjustment - is operational but useless), but this should not be seen as an issue. Last but not least, the watch comes on a superb “vintage” style dark brown hand-made leather strap with a “Pinion” signed blasted steel buckle (available in two different length), that compliments the watch perfectly and is also very well finished. In summary, the Pinion Atom ND is an awesome watch for a reasonable price compared to the quality of the watch, the contents of the box (high-end watch roll, cleaning cloth and spring bar tool), but also the care given to customer satisfaction which is incredible!

Excellent customer service. Very personal and went the extra mile to make the purchase special and an exciting gift. Watch is a thing of beauty and packaging is what you would expect from far more expensive luxury retail - great leather and canvas watch roll. Everything about the watch, packaging and service speaks of the values of attention to detail and a genuine passion for the design and the product. Delighted and wouldn't hesitate to buy or recommend.

My husband had been looking for a watch for a special birthday and after a lot of shop searching found the Pinion web site. Choice made I started the potential purchase. I can only say what a total joy the whole process has been. The whole experience was so personal. Care and attention to my requirements, superb communication, great advise, it was as if I was the only customer. There were photos shared of my watch before shipping and I had complete confidence that if there were any issues they would be resolved. Shipping was of course tracked and again great comms on exactly the date it would arrive. The watch itself is beautiful. Being a less known brand it creates a lot of interest and the quality stands up to close scrutiny. It is very much a statement watch. I would have complete trust in both the watch and Pinion as a company to take care of their customers. A lovely company and memorable experience.

Very nice, one-off version of the Axis II made up of a black DLC coated case with bronze bezel and crown and a green dial sporting silver hour/minute hands and a bronze coloured seconds hand. Fitted it with a new/old stock green canvas "Hawker" strap and it looks fantastic!

Great watch i'm well pleased. One -ve comment: the top edge on the inside of the lugs is very sharp. I would have expected them to be smoothed off.

I've been wanting and waiting to get a Pinion watch for a few years. When the Atom ND 39 came on the market it was the watch. Workmanship is incredible, attention to detail, the packaging, presentation and communication with Piers, all top notch. I am one of those chaps that are "blessed" with a 6.5" wrist. The Atom sits nicely on wrist. I highly recommend this brand for any watch collector or anyone who wants a well designed, well built watch for a great price.

Dear All, I recently purchased the Bronze Axis11 with blue dial, this particular watch was worn in popular TV series Split. It’s a very beautiful piece well executed and a lovely quality from the applied numerals on the lovely blue dial giving it a great contrast. The petrol blue leather strap also of great quality wearing in nicely. In the past I have owned the Atom while a great piece the Axis is a great leap. Looking forward to dealing with Piers who is doing a great job producing some thing different supporting the British watch industry. His watches are something different from the design aspect to final product, it’s nice to have a Watch not all others wear and that alone pleases me. Keep up the good work Piers and your dedicated team. Regards, Tony Moore

These are wonderful watches, designed and made by one man and it shows. Great care and craftsmanship. The customer care is of the same standard. Personal and attentive, Piers made sure the watch got to me on time and it looked beautifully presented in a lovely box. The watch looks amazing. I can not recommend Pinion highly enough. Buy one of these watches. You will not regret it. I hope I shall be “not regretting again” soon!

A fantastic buying experience from Pinion with regular emails from Piers to keep me updated along the way. The Pure GG is a fantastic watch and comes complete with a very high quality leather strap which suits the watch perfectly. What more can I say except that I will be a returning customer - 5* all the way...

I've always had excellent service form Pinion. Now the proud owner of two watches. I Bought my first 2 years ago, and now my second just last week. If you want a watch with what I would call a no fuss style, but nevertheless still an eye turner to those who appreciate quality, go no where else.

Another purchase from Pinion Watches; another fine, well made, well designed British timepiece. The only downside is having to decide which one to wear!
