"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."
Love it!! Great price point for a solid watch. Continue to get many compliments on my Shellback (even more than I do when wearing my Blackwater or First 42).
It,s a wonderful watch. Apart from being beautiful, it is quite precise.
love the watch great value. I should have gotten the blue dial model also
Excellent item and great value for money. Looks great, and feels great when wearing it. Delivery very disappointing - Fed Ex asked multiple times for the payment to cover the import tax - even though they had sent me confirmation of payment. Eventually had to send bank details as proof before they would release the item meaning the item was delayed by at least a week. Not very good !
The overall quality of manufacture and finish is definitely A grade. The design aesthetic is that of an experienced artist who knows what makes a watch look right. I cannot think of any higher praise for the team involved in bringing this watch to life!
I was surprised by the quality of this watch. It feels solid, has amazing lume (that last all night) and keeps good time. It has quickly become the main watch I wear. It does it all, looks great and is comfortable. Most of all, it makes me smile.
It satisfied my expectations . I would just recommend that success may not elevate the price of the brand .
I love this watch. Great fit and finish. I love that it is so well thought out, and a unique design. Only thing I would change would be to make it a little bigger, maybe 41mm. But overall, outstanding and a great value.
Everything was fine and I am enjoying the watch a lot. Really enjoy the clasp with on-the-fly adjustment. It really enhances all-day wearing comfort. The watch's accuracy has been with ~2-3 seconds so far.
watch is really nice Delivery is fast too
Delivery was very fast and i like the watch very much. The bracelet and fit is really nice. The movement is smooth an i like the design. Its a combo of suit watch and a diver.
The whole process was really easy and nice with Tusenö. The delivery was prompt, I really like that there is a FB group with others who are just receiving their Shellback as well. The actual watch itself is excellent! The fit and finish are really very good for the price point, and I really like the packaging. It has always driven me nuts when buying a watch, and I get a huge wooden box, which looks great, but serves no practical purpose.
The Shellback got it all. Classy, stylish, sporty and modern. It wears really great for any occasion. Beatuiful sandwich dial and modern hands. Details is great all over, Lume included. I was a little worried it would feel small with it’s 39+ size, but actually it feels like a 40/41without being chunky in any way. Great bracelet, and a watch that fit any strap. Well done..!
