"A Swedish stunner!
Shellback offers great value and is a solid manufactured watch. Case finish is nicely executed and the bezel action is just fantastic.
But we got to talk about the lume, it is mental! It has lume everywhere, dial, hands, bezel etc.
Moving on to the bracelet it is gorgeous. Great quality and beautiful surfaces.
High quality attainable for the mere mortal."
"Tremendous build quality, unique design, a level of fit and finish that doesn’t exist at this price point – it’s genuinely a wonderful watch.
I haven’t been this impressed by a watch for a long time – and if you buy one too, I’m confident you’ll feel the same."

"Best microbrand all year.
I tell you what guys, Tusenö really know what they are doing. This watch is really well made, top level.
The dial is just fantastic and I love those custom made hands and the hour hand that sweeps over the model name, a really cool feature.
Shellback feels expensive, like a real premium watch."
"While not doing anything especially new or groundbreaking, the Shellback succeeds at offering a classically attractive dive watch that sets itself apart in a very crowded space with wonderfully executed design touches.
The phrase “value proposition” is tossed around pretty frequently, but anyone looking for a versatile dive watch for substantially less than $1,000 should keep reading."
The 40 mm diameter is perfect for my wrist. It´s comfortable to wear with all straps. A good value watch with nice details
I love the watch. I own a good number of watches and the Shellback is one of my favourite in my rotation. Great value, quality and design for the price.
Price is reasonable for the quality it brings. Detailing is very good but size is a bit small, would have preferred it to be 41/42mm diameter. Fit is good.
Very well made and fits wonderfully once the braclet was sized. Really digging the quality of the rubber strap, and the carrying case is really top notch and useful. Well done.
I like the details of the watch and the size.
I’m a chronic watch flipper but this one I’m keeping in the small keeper collection. Excellent quality, tons of lume, great finishing and love the design and depth from the sandwich dial.
Love it, great quality, a lot of watch for the money
I think the watch looks great. It is a very good size and the multiple straps is a huge plus. I’ve had the watch in the ocean and pool over the last 5 days and it is performing great.
It is a nice watch and I love the way it looks in every way. The general finish is excellent. but there is for sure room for improvement.
Well built, innovative design. A pleasure to wear! Value for money.
Mycket bra pris. Finishen är mycket bra, "ursnygg", skulle man kunna säga. Det är också en av mina absolut bekvämaste klockor. Rätt storlek till min 17,5 cm handled. Gillar att minut/sekundvisarna når ända ut. Mycket lätt att ställa exakt. Lumen i världsklass. Vill verkligen se en GMT, gärna på samma boett, och med röd visare. Vad snyggt det kunde bli!

Price was good in relation to quality. Handsome and comfortable piece, great sizing and wears well. Packaging with classy cork travel case was superb.
The Shellback delivers a nice looking watch that is built solid yet comfortable. I have the black enamel date version and really like it. As others have noted, it plays with tradition just enough to be its own watch and remain instantly recognizable as a skin diver tool watch. Love the overall look of the watch, especially the design for the hands. The bracelet and clasp are amazing. Both are nice to look at and comfortable on the wrist. The lumed bezel shines brightly. Lastly, I appreciate the mechanical Ronda movement. Not perfect, but excellent for the price and it shows progress in the modern watch world. Overall, outstanding value for money.
Price is good for the watch quality. Really liked the stainless steel bracelet, the female end links fit my wrist nicely.
