ZEITWINKEL - sounds like Germany and many of you must have heard of the brand name. I, too, had known the brand only by name and also thought that it was (yet) another new small German Brand. Boy was I wrong. There was a small reception of the brand where...
And I've had the opporunity to try them on more than once...that said, to me personally, they do come across as a little cold, but I can fully understand and agree on the value that they provide, with the movement and finishing higher than many brands whi...
