This is my first time to hear Boarrne, maybe you won’t know this watch if I do not write this article. Boarrne is indeed a new watch brand in Chinese market, I found it when doing searches of “Chinese watches” on some websites. Boarrne is a brand created in Shenzhen of China, I found a very interesting thing, which is the marketing position of Boarrne. This brand seems to have a very clear marketing position, which is only offering watches for the elderly and students who are going to do an examination, however, I found many Boarrne watches are suitable for common people, like this one I am showing below, it has a very attractive design, and the lume system is also unique that different from most other watches, I like this watch from Boarrne.
This stainless steel Boarrne watch is colorful, absolutely not made for the elderly, but I think young people and students will like it. The manufacturer has two color options for the watch, black and white, both look nice, I chose the black one. The watch uses Tritium H3 lume system that makes the watch look a bit diving style, the case has a 43mm case diameter and Boarrne claims it is 100m waterproof, so this is totally a diver’s watch.
The watch comes with a great box, not like other micro brands from China, Boarrne offers a bigger and more high-end box for this watch. Actually I appreciate two points of the watch. First, its dial design. The black dial features a high quality Tritium H3 lume system, the Tritium H3 Tubes as hour markers have different lume colors, there are orange, green and blue. You can check the picture of the dial lume below, it is beautiful. Like the tube hour markers, the design of the hands is also attractive, they are sword-shaped, each hand is also set with Tritium H3 tube and will emit green lume light in dark conditions. Not like regular lume coating, the Tritium H3 is long lasting and can work for years. The different colors usage on the dial also enhances the readability. The second point I like on the watch is its movement, which is a Miyota automatic movement imported from Japan. For this type of watch with sapphire crystal and Miyota movement, the price is more acceptable than other Chinese niche brand watches. Unfortunately, besides this stainless steel bracelet, Boarrne does not offer rubber band or nylon band for this watch.
