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

The brand Serica was created in 2019 by J&eacute;r&ocirc;me Burget and 3 friends in Paris, France. The name Serica comes from a lost region at the end of the Far East that the Greeks and Romans named it like this. This place echoes the genesis of the brand, which aims to design quality mechanical watches in a neo-retro style, ready to follow you to the ends of the world.
The range includes watches such as the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/4512"> Serica 4512</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/5303"> Serica 5303</a> and the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/8315_gmt_chronometre"> Serica 8315 GMT Stopwatch</a>. One of the particularities of this brand is that its name does not appear anywhere on the dial, in order to encourage the enthusiast to buy a design, finishes and proportions, and not just a name. In July 2023, Serica launched the Serica 5303 COSC, a chronometer version certified by the Swiss Official Chronometer Testing Institute.
Their penultimate model is the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190"> Serica 6190</a> surfing on the bases of the brand's first reference, the Serica 4512. This 6190 follows the stylistic codes of the brand, lyre handles, a choice of different dials and the possibility of choosing the position of the crown at 3 o'clock or at &ldquo;Destro&rdquo; mode at 9 o&rsquo;clock. This Serica 6190 is powered with the Soprod M100 caliber COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Testing) certified, like the current productions of the other 5303 and 8315 models.&nbsp;
Since November 21, 2024, Serica has been offering a very daring new collection... A dress watch off the beaten track called &ldquo;Parade&rdquo; under the reference 1174. These 4 figures, like all other Serica references, offer a symbolism derived from the golden number or divine proportions whose ratio between length and width is 1.174... A novelty offered for pre-order at &euro; 1,490 for one delivery planned for March 2025...
<h2 dir="ltr">How much does a Serica watch cost?</h2>
The prices of Serica watches change and differ depending on the model. Most cost between &euro; 990 and &euro; 1,890 depending on the models and finishes. The brand's GMT model, Serica 8315 GMT Chronometer costs &euro; 1,890 while the latest model launched by Serica, the reference<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/serica/6190"> 6190</a> is offered to &euro; 990.
Serica is independent and produces around 5,000 watches per year, all models combined.

Finally something new and a risk taken on a GMT!!! The watch has ideal proportions and it will adapt to all wrist sizes. I bought it in their shop and was lucky to have Jérôme, the creator and designer of the brand, who was able to explain to me in detail his thinking and his process. A real moment! It's nice to give your money to real enthusiasts

Falling for something

Here is a watch that will catch the eye of the curious and the connoisseurs. Perfect proportions. A successful reinterpretation of the GMT too often copied from the brand with the crown. A truly beautiful and accessible watch. An everyday ally, ready for all situations with its water resistance pushed to 20 bar. A Pavé in the pond of the world of accessible watchmaking.

Serica 8315

I was looking for a GMT and had decided to buy it new, a first in a long time. The question of who I was going to "give" my money to quickly arose. Two brands and two models quickly emerged and after going to Serica and talking to the creators there was no longer any doubt. I was drawn into their approach and wanted to be part of their story. The watch has a unique design even if it uses well-established codes. It enhances the eclecticism of the references by not falling into lukewarm syncretism. In addition to that, it has exclusive features such as the lollipop GMT hand or the Ante and Post meridian markings on the bezel. Comfortable, sexy and COSC, it invites you to travel, what more could you ask for? The only thing that took me some time to get used to was the bracelet. It is very well made but 20/14 is atypical and disconcerting when you are not used to it. That said, like a lunar watch celebrity, it can wear anything and magnifies all bracelets.

As good as before

I bought the Serica 8315 GMT after falling in love with it at a watchmaking evening dedicated to the brand. The passion of the creators and the unique DNA of these watches really won me over.

I don't regret this purchase; it is unique. Its design is inspired by classic watchmaking codes, but reinterpreted and modernized.

The enamel dial of this watch has an incredible and magnificent depth. The absence of a logo, the refocused indexes that help to visually fill the space. Everything is coherent and reinterprets the codes.

I would say that I just need a good steel bracelet to complete it.

Strong DNA!

I bought this watch in February 2024, and after 2 months of wearing it I am completely won over. I was able to try this watch in the Serica boutique in Paris, but I am still surprised by the comfort offered by the watch. 

I have a small wrist and I was looking for a slightly sportier, thicker watch. The proportions offered are ideal and allow increased comfort even for small wrists. 
I appreciate the purity of the dial, without a date and without a brand logo. 
One regret about this watch is the original bracelet, comfortable but still light in terms of quality. It will soon have its custom bracelet. 
The watch has a COSC-certified movement. I could have done without it, but it's always good to take. 
I find the value for money convincing on this piece. 

The acquisition of this first Serica will surely make me want to be tempted by another watch in the range.

A rather stunning watch

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.
<h2>Quels sont les principaux mod&egrave;les de la marque Beaubleu ?</h2>

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.
