Any MING fans? Post your wristshots
I finally got a MING this week as I love their design. Only thing I believe would make it better is a thicker case and a 40-41 size. However the watch is great and lume is gorgeous.

I think Ming will be one of the indy/microbrands that becomes a mainstream name in a few years

I hate what this watch game has turned into. From big brands you got years of waiting or you need to first buy a buncha models to quality you for the ones you want and then from the independent brands you gotta pay them and wait a year to get your watch which by then you might not want as tastes change constantly

I didnt realize just nice and quality built the Ming watches have. Photos and videos dont do justice to how great it is in person.

My only gripe with my 37.07 is I with the case was thicker and 40mm. I typically prefer 36mm sizes but since the case on my mosaic is thin and on a rubber strap it woulda been better in a thicker bigger size. However aside from that I tend to reach for it quite often

I used to like their watches and own a couple, but Carlotta ruined it for me. Just the worst disregard for customer retention I have ever encountered. I won’t be supporting the company any longer.

Nice watches but a little samey for me these days. In the UK the market for Ming seems to have bottomed out a bit, so it'll be interesting to see how the brand fares in the future.

I received the invite to their dinner event, made plans, then she emails “oops that was a mistake, we’re full”. My friends went and said there was ample space. Just overall a sour taste and terrible correspondence from her. No more Mings for me.

Got my second Ming in short order. Thanks to this forum telling me about the waitlist. Got a 22.01 gilt. Even seemed like a good deal as it was cheaper than my 37.07 monolith.

I love my 20.11 too. Eagerly waiting for them to release the 22mm bracelet!
