I just received the brand new 126519 in white gold.
This model is magnificent, it marks its territory and paradoxically it is not too flashy except for connoisseurs.
The full sub-dials are much more beautiful than on the steel Dayto.
It is much heavier than the steel Dayto but the Oysterflex bracelet compensates with great comfort.
When trying it on, it is possible to choose between 2 bracelet sizes with the extension system of course.
The case is slightly larger than a classic Rolex.
Not to be worn anywhere...


Exceptional

What a pleasure to have this watch that goes everywhere. With a small budget you can really treat yourself and at the same time it pops.
I hesitated with the superb green but the Tif blue is more suited to my desire for a summer watch.
I bought it for the holidays with its summer color, its lightness and its really nice bracelet.
Surely the best Q/P and pleasure.
Only small flaw for me: I'm not a fan of the butterfly clasp because it is not practical and not micro adjustable but hey given the price...
So we know the arguments: automatic with 80 hours, transparent case back, sapphire crystal, superluminova, 40 which is strangely a little big but it's fine and ABOVE ALL it is an incredibly light watch.
When you are passionate you have to have it in your collection, it is now a "must have"



Summer watch

For everyone at TAGHEUER it's Monaco or Carrera but for me the most beautiful is the AUTAVIA FLYBACK PANDA. I just got it and it has an EXOTIC DAYTO side. In 42, it imposes itself on the wrist with ceramic bezel, super luminova, transparent case back and 80 hours of match reserve

AUTAVIA PANDA FLYBACK

We often need a less flashy watch without looking fake and this SPIRIT ZULU has only strong points in this color:
Mixes of satin, matte and shiny.
A 39 all-purpose.
COSC.
Superluminova.
An anthracite dial with many details that changes color depending on the light.
A sober GMT DATE
Sapphire crystal
Waterproof 100 m
A great Q/P ratio and light.



Retro, sober and rich in details

Great little watch that goes with everything.
The vantage side of this timepiece is really well done.
I really enjoy wearing it because it is also light.
The case is well made.
The diameter of the case in 39.5m is perfect
Aluminium
Glass: Sapphire
Super-Luminova
Power reserve of 63 hours

With this Baltic, you will have the perfect mix of what was best in the 60s-70s with a modern hand-wound mechanical heart.

We return the major inspiration of the Univesal Genève compax "Nina Rindt" of the 60s, but also a bit of Daytona P-Newman or Speedmaster with this flared bezel and its flat links bracelet. Really a tasty mix brought up to date with a neo-retro sauce without losing the identity of Baltic

A pure beauty with a vanilla cream dial with a Swiss mechanical heart from Sellita in a manual version that works like a charm.

The detail that kills even if I am not particularly a car fan, is the number 04 of the limited series engraved on the back of the case in large like a number written on the door of a racing car, it is original and very aesthetic had to think of it

The only downside is the water resistance of only 5 ATM, but for a chrono it is not very serious and if we look closely this Baltic has exactly the same characteristics as for the Speedmaster 57 of Omega with a few details near

A tasty mix of the 60s and 70s

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

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!

Baltic Tricompax Panda

The inspirations of this Baltic chrono are obvious but it is so well done! Case, dial, glass, bezel, pushers… everything is perfectly proportioned and unfailingly hits the mark when you are fond of old muscular cars, with hints of rubber and burnt oil. In addition to the design, the watch is technically impeccable, precise and comfortable to handle. It can accommodate many leather straps but its flatlink suits it so well and plays so pleasantly with the light that it is difficult not to leave it in place. Just one small flaw, this strap likes hair a little too much; here the homage to old watches is perhaps pushed a little too far…

Tricompax Reverse Panda

As usual, Baltic happily revisits the stylistic codes of watches from the 50s to the 70s. The inspiration from Rolex, Universal, Heuer chronographs, etc. from the 60s is evident here and the overall execution - as well as the attention to detail - will delight neo-vintage enthusiasts. A special mention to the grained finish of the dial and that of the bezel.
