Following the fairly recent discovery of this watch on a fellow Bordeaux YouTuber called dialicious 😉I was pleasantly surprised by this watch at an unbeatable quality/price ratio
Tiffany blue color in tune with the times with a beautiful sun, plus a date also well integrated
Bracelet of good quality also with a micro adjustment easy to access with a tool however
A downside is the power reserve not always homogeneous sometimes far from the 40 hours initially announced

Citizen integrated bracelet unbeatable value for money

Looking for a GMT watch at a reasonable price, I naturally turned to this French brand that knows how to reinterpret the codes of vintage with taste and sobriety
The dial is deep black with a very good level of luminescence on both the dial and the bezel
The visit and trying on of the watch in their showroom is worth the trip even if ordering online is also a good way to acquire the beauty
Good quality tropical book bracelet also possible to replace their rice grain bracelet with many micro adjustments and especially equipped with quick pumps as standard on steel bracelet
Also well decorated case back
Sober blue GMT hand that does the job
Bracelet photographed here not the original one a more comfortable rubber tropic B
Two downsides to note: hard bezel and crown on the contrary seems fragile when you turn it, a known problem at Baltic

Balticly yours - from GMT with love

Hello 
Already a big fan of the Serica brand since the beginning, we are witnessing the rise in the range of all watches at Serica including the fief Watch 
My first Californian dial watch with a very beautiful black enamel dial with the most beautiful effect
The hands have been redesigned to be more in osmosis with the diver and the Gmt
A change in continuity
The bonklip bracelet still has its effect, no need for micro adjustment
Cosc watch under the €1000 barrier, who can do better? Not many people
A single downside, more audacity in terms of design compared to the 4512 would have been appreciated

Serica field from Cosc with love 

Having discovered this young Serica brand on the internet I found a simplicity and a reinterpretation of the field Watch code magnificently designed by Jérôme
I wanted to see it in their showroom which is a showcase sublimating their creation what can I say how not to fall for all their variations of their 4512 and now their little sister the 6190 their dial with an impressive lacquer applied

Serica 4512 premiere watch masterstroke

Having bought my first beautiful watch, an Aquaracer 300m of a more modest size, I wanted to continue in continuity with a contained price
I naturally turned to Tag Heuer and their Aquaracer range equipped with a quartz movement
Very readable watch with steel bezel that can move easily for a good dive
Screwed crown required, very easy to access and protected
Three downsides:
Adding links requires handling with tube pins, not easy
Micro adjustment only three notches and Tag does not provide half links
It is heavy all the same

Solid and readable Aquaracer

My first watch from a major watch brand purchased over 25 years ago now and still functional
Equipped with a quartz movement and yes it happens to me with formidable precision
Screwed crown of rigor absorbs shocks without problem
Old-fashioned clasp with double security and a contained diameter no longer available currently
Very good luminescence despite the years😁
5-position micro adjustment system allows a perfect fit not necessarily the case on more expensive watches including the new aquaracer only three adjustments
One criticism is the tube pin system not always easy to adjust to size in the summer without fear because fragile

Diving with complete peace of mind

Owner of a number of watches
this is my first Titanium with a beautiful anthracite dial readability
The gold applied indexes are not flashy as one might have feared.
Longines' move upmarket is undeniable, Coscee plus Titanium watch
What can be said about the power reserve tested and found a real camel 72 hours measured
A real flexibility of the crown
The only flaws: too much information in the dial and the 21 mm lug spacing

Spirit welcome to the world of aviation

Owner of the other two Serica the diver 5303 and their field 4512 I wanted to see their new and first GMT
The reversed white and black ceramic bezel is beautiful with a magnificent rendering
A flexibility when you turn it incredible
We feel the move upmarket with the cosc certification now
The gmt is indicated with a very original sienna lollipop and their classic broad Arrow for the hour hand
The paw of Jérôme the designer has struck again and hit the mark
The only small downside is we are waiting for their metal bracelet planned for 2024 🤫

A GMT that has everything a great one has to offer

What else can I say about this Serica 
First of all the one-click bezel of unmatched flexibility with a steel ceramic marriage 
It can be used in GMT mode with this two-part bezel, it is finely thought out by a designer like Jérôme who has hit the nail on the head, he is strong 👍
A flattened Milanese mesh bracelet of incredible flexibility, tailored to the size, no problem for chicken wrists or more Thanos versions 
The dial which uses the same lacquer as the 4512 plus the B-road arrow hour hand, a very beautiful diver at a reasonable price which is now cosy
Only one downside is the crown which sometimes plays up a bit

Serica dives in chic fashion

What a discovery thanks to you Xavier with your presentation on your channel which made us meet Nicolas the founder of the Beaubleu brand
An original way to read the time via its three circles which turn without necessarily being the most precise the blued second hand is beautiful
Bravo for this achievement the hammered Milanese mesh bracelet is beautiful with unequalled comfort
In short a poetry of all time I have a hard time not looking at it all the time to admire these moving circles
Only one downside is the readability especially when you get older

Vitruvian Poetry

What can I say about this watch, already an encounter, access to a very seventies universe when you enter his stores
Alain the founder knew how to put his mark and design these watches with his own know-how while respecting the watchmaking codes, precision, robustness and the world of surfing that we see in this watch
A work on the bracelet, a hammering never seen before at this price level
A move upmarket with the new g100 movements, I recommend the boutique experience that allows you to discover this universe, not only watchmaking
A great discovery

A beautiful start

(Updated January 2024)

I had a brief. I was looking for a GMT that I could take on trips abroad. A tool watch that could be worn without hassle and pick up a few scratches, affordable and unidentifiable at first glance. I shortlisted my alternatives, visited the Baltic showroom, spoiler alert, I bought an Aquascaphe GMT. In use, its reduced proportions and neo-vintage design make it an extremely versatile, even elegant, watch, so much so that it is probably the one I wear most often. A bit of luck on my choice, given that 3 years later I have not traveled anywhere. I was looking to tick a single box: in the end it will tick them all.

I was looking to check a box.

Since I bought the Baltic Aquascaphe GMT two years ago, it has become my favorite watch for everyday use. 

The precision and reliability of the Swiss automatic movement is reassuring, and the GMT function is very practical for me. The stainless steel bracelet is sturdy and comfortable, and the folding clasp ensures optimum security. The 200-meter water resistance allows me to enjoy various activities without worry. 

In short, this watch is pure pleasure.

BALTIC AQUASCAPHE GMT

I acquired this Baltic in search of a GMT, a complication that I no longer had in my watch box, which does not require me to call my banker or bribe an AD. After examining many models in this price range (the offer is plentiful!), I finally chose this beautiful Baltic, the first in the Aquascaphe collection equipped with a Swiss movement (Soprod) and, incidentally, the date. This watch is extremely well designed: It is comfortable, equipped with a planisphere on the back to remind you of the time zones and help with setting, even if it is not a "real" GMT offering independent setting of the hour hand. Its case is entirely brushed, except, interestingly, under the notched bezel which turns with just the right amount of resistance. I find that the glossy dial, the finesse of its texts and the domed sapphire crystal are the highlights of the show. They give a real personality to the watch which is intended to be vintage-inspired. The bezel is made of sapphire, and the luminescent numerals are very pleasant in the dark, complementing the luminescence of the Indexes and hands. The crown is marked with a "B" on a grained background, a small detail that confirms the care taken by Baltic in the aesthetics of its model. Finally, the grain of rice bracelet, even if it does not have the aesthetics of an Oyster or a Jubilee for me, is extremely comfortable. I also acquired the Baltic tropic bracelet with pin buckle. Both come with quick-release spring bars that make changing the bracelet a formality, which is very nice (in addition, the case has pierced lugs). In short, I have little to criticize about this Baltic, which I really like to wear and which even allows itself to overshadow my Submariner. At most I can note its weight and thickness, which the shape of the case hides quite well once on the wrist. In terms of the movement, I note a very clear notching of the crown, a great flexibility of the winding, and a precision that does not call for observations. To conclude, I must admit that this is my first watch of a French brand (even if it is less so than a Péquignet caliber royal), and that this Baltic Aquascaphe GMT presents for me an excellent pleasure/quality/price ratio. I had hesitated with a Yéma Superman 500 GMT, the choice having been made only on details.

A very nice balance, if not innovative.

My new Baltic is a small toolwatch with its neo vintage style, I particularly like the domed glass distorting the dial according to its orientation, the orange insert is quite well chosen and is not without reminding us of a certain GMT a little more known which would have patinated with time. The case back with the different time zones is quite nice. The rubber strap is pretty and comfortable and gives a slightly more sporty look to the watch. Small flaw to be a real toolwatch, it is only waterproof to 100m and therefore not recommended for games or water sports.

Cr&eacute;&eacute;e en 2017 par le designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu apporte une dimension nouvelle &agrave; l&rsquo;horlogerie en cr&eacute;ant des montres &agrave; la fois esth&eacute;tiques, &eacute;tonnantes et profond&eacute;ment symboliques. Les aiguilles rondes, signature de la Maison, sont le reflet d&rsquo;une singularit&eacute; et d&rsquo;une simplicit&eacute; sophistiqu&eacute;e. Chaque mod&egrave;le arbore un design d&eacute;licieusement contemporain, o&ugrave; chaque d&eacute;tail, chaque surface, interagissent avec la lumi&egrave;re.
Cassant les codes de l'horlogerie traditionnelle en apportant une vision nouvelle du temps, les montres Beaubleu sortent des sentiers battus en arborant des aiguilles rondes et &eacute;vid&eacute;es, inspir&eacute;es des travaux de Galil&eacute;e dans sa compr&eacute;hension du syst&egrave;me solaire. Ces aiguilles affichent de mani&egrave;re po&eacute;tique les heures, qui ne pointent pas un index ni une graduation, mais qui indiquent une position, un instant depuis le centre du cadran.

Created in 2017 by designer Nicolas Ducoudert, Beaubleu brings a new dimension to watchmaking by creating watches that are aesthetic, astonishing and deeply symbolic. The round hands, signature of the House, reflect singularity and sophisticated simplicity. Each model features a deliciously contemporary design, where every detail, every surface, interacts with light.
Breaking the codes of traditional watchmaking by providing a new vision of time, Beaubleu watches go off the beaten track by featuring round, hollowed-out hands, inspired by the work of Galileo in his understanding of the solar system. These hands poetically display the hours, which do not point to an index or a graduation, but which indicate a position, an instant from the center of the dial.
<h2 dir="ltr">What are the main models of the Beaubleu brand?</h2>
Beaubleu has just announced on June 5, 2024, the launch of a new limited series collection called<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/beaubleu/seconde_francaise"> Beaubleu Seconde Francaise</a>.
