Wanting to own a chrono watch with a white dial and black sub-dials, I fell in love with this Baltic and its mouse-click options. And here I am, the owner of a number on this first series.
My impressions? Small diameter, rather precise movement, very nice finishes and what's more, it has a face!
I love it!

Neo-vintage sports car

Fall under the spell of this magnificent Beaubleu with Circular needles.
Intrigued at first by this play of needles that made me lose track of time, I fell into the abyss of this deep blue imprisoned in a circular box, well gripped by hollowed-out horns. What a work of the designer! Hats off!

Of a circular blue

A sporty, timeless watch with a strong history! Easy to wear, you can vary the bracelets for more chic or simply to echo why it was designed. Motor racing! Despite a diameter of 42mm, these lugs that are refined perfectly fit the finest handles.

Moonwatch

A light, robust watch with a vintage effect! This is a watch that I bought for my maritime sports hobbies and which fills this box wonderfully. Perfect reading of the time, it is forgotten on the wrist and beautiful work of the bezel. I would have appreciated a few millimeters less.

Big blue

First born of my collection that I did not think would become a collection by the way.
My choice is the most timeless watch I know. Fine, elegant, robust and waterproof, it goes everywhere and will follow me throughout my life, despite its side a little too polished to be honest!

The timeless Rolex

A favorite for this particular design and so characteristic in the Octo range. 
It is not Finissimo and yet it is remarkably thin and comfortable despite its 41mm diameter. 
The case is composed of a black PVD steel case, a dial that absorbs light and large applied indexes give it relief. 
In-house movement!

Black it’s Black 

The first men's wristwatch? Just that! 
Its originality, finesse and elegance make it the perfect watch to wear on special occasions. So it was without any hesitation that I chose it to accompany me to my wedding! 
Comfortable on a daily basis on its steel bracelet, you can however replace it with a leather strap in one click. 
The one provided by Cartier is also a little disappointing.

My timeless classic

Herma watch, given to my grandfather for his retirement in 1957. A watch that remained in a family cupboard for many years before being revived on my wrist after a simple winding. Small diameter of 34mm, thin, it slips perfectly under a shirt to accompany me to work. Its dial is slowly but surely acquiring a patina.

Sentimental

Baltic Aquascaphe watch with cream index arrived in my collection after an exchange with an enthusiast who may recognize himself (thanks again for these photos). Simple and effective watch! Ideal for those who want a watch with a vintage look but the robustness of a modern watch.

This Baltic Aquascaphe Titanium is truly a beautiful watch. Its design and proportions are ideal, allowing it to adopt all styles. It is very comfortable thanks to its contained weight, thank you titanium. Titanium which gives a matte patina making it very elegant in addition to sporty. Its readability is excellent whatever the conditions. The Miyota 9039 works perfectly well. The sapphire crystal is very effective. The only downside is a slight play of the bezel.

An "almost" perfect watch!
