Baltic - History, Models and Owners' Reviews

Micro-brands are sometimes gems and Baltic is an example! I don't know if we can still say that it is a "micro-brand" but the whole experience from buying in their showroom to contemplating my wrist and this for several years, discovering the evolution of an exceptional patina, is perfect. I did my first sea dive with it and everything went very well. The watch is beautiful and reliable...and what's more it's French! The tropical bracelet sold with the watch is very comfortable. Note that it is scented with monoi, which is rare enough to be highlighted.

I like limited editions and Baltic is accustomed to this. This Baltic x A collected man is a variant of the MR01, one of the most popular models by the Baltic brand. However, I did not like the Breguet numerals, this Baltic uses Arabic numerals located in a sector. Another sector is present for the minutes, divided into 5 minutes, and each minute is subdivided into 10 seconds. This minute sector is quite cluttered. The center of the dial, stamped Baltic, is grained and is partly eaten by a small second at 7:30. The graining matches the sunray present in the sectors. It looks very good. Note the case back revealing the micro-rotor caliber, which is well decorated for the price (700 euros in total). As with the other cases, Baltic bracelets can be put on this watch, the rice grain bracelet going very well with it.

This Baltic caught my eye at first glance. It is reminiscent of some of the most iconic watches we have ever seen. I love its vintage look and its flat link bracelet, which is as beautiful as it is comfortable. The choice of manual movement allows it to remain very thin and I don't mind the winding at all. On the contrary, it allows me to listen to its heart beating and I must say that it has a sweet sound. I am simply a fan!
