MAEN Watches Hudson Review: Incredible or Meh
Microbrands - everyone's starting one. It's what's in, kids! With all this microbrand saturation it's difficult to create a microbrand piece these days that actually has impact. One watch could look like any other watch from another brand if the "designers" aren't careful. That's why it's important for microbrands to have a design element built into the piece that's more than just the name on the dial.
