Nice that you introduce a watch with French heritage. It will be on my shortlist.

[@mono1no1aware]

Thanks for reviewing!

[@sinafunke3449]

I have got one in Salmon, its very cute and i love her.

[@watchreviews4k]

Congratulations Sina. Excellent choice. Wear yours in good health. Regards, #WR4K

[@jirikrajnak9047]

The industry needs watches like this in order to bring the market prices down a peg, closer to sanity. If the standard on lower tier watches keeps rising, then the upper echelon of watchmaking has to change their own strategy to stay competetive and relevant.

[@paulhiggins8774]

Very surprised to see such a lovely looking movement coming from china, if something looks good it usually is. Shame it’s not 38mm
Great review as always 👍

[@jlyutiup]

I think the sub dial could have been made smaller which will make it more aesthetically pleasing.

[@ccr6042]

Thx for the review. Beautiful, I'm a bit worried about the unproven movement on a 650 EUR watch. Otherwise so desirable... The finish is galaxies away from the AE watch (Lobinni) which moreover have spelling mistakes on their plates.

[@ccr6042]

Just won the auction, WOW. You made my day. Thx so much for bringing such jewels in your sales

[@watchreviews4k]

Congratulations Claude. Wear it in good health. Regards, #WR4K

[@kweidenthaler]

Beautiful

[@treehugger3615]

I didn't think the blue could be this pretty. Also, I don't know if I could call this a daily wear, as I wouldn't want the hesalite to get scratched.

[@watchreviews4k]

Scratches can easily be removed from; Hesalite, acrylic, and Plexiglass, crystals using Polywatch. Regards, #WR4K

[@treehugger3615]

@@watchreviews4k I’ve had really bad scratches with my plexi glass watches, some cut very deep.

[@watchreviews4k]

Sorry to hear that. Sapphire crystal is much harder and more scratch resistant. Regards, #WR4K

[@dannyg6592]

Excellent review. The Baltic resembles a Patek Calatrava for a tiny fraction of the price of the Patek. Clearly, it is not a Patek but it is such a looker! I am seriously considering ordering a salmon dial - it is a truly beautiful dress watch.

[@davidgarza995]

Can we get a state of the collection update thank you

[@watchreviews4k]

I don't have a collection David. I sold all my pieces and only own my Black Bay 58 now. Although I will be adding a San Martin SN006G-B1 soon, so will make a SOTC review then. Regards, #WR4K

[@davidgarza995]

@@watchreviews4k you should have sold them to me😢 THANK YOU FOR YOUR CONTENT keep up the amazing work🙏

[@happyburial]

Hey, thanks for the great video!
Did I understand you correctly, that the included leather strap will not fit anything above 7 inches? I have a 7,25 inch wrist and was really looking forward to this :(

[@watchreviews4k]

Yes 7" is the maximum. Regards, #WR4K

[@tk423b]

7.5” wrist. I’m out. Sadly. Most watches are. Don’t know how you deal with an 8.

[@shukhor3010]

At this price, minimum should be a Swiss movement. SW200 would be good. With the cheap Chinese movement. It turn me down greatly and felt that they are into money grabbing. I see more hype than substance.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching. Regards, #WR4K

[@benoitcerrina]

Sw200 would not have the same thickness. Would not be a micro rotor and would not be as beautiful to look at.
On the other hand and despite all the discussion about how appropriate it is. The hessalite crystal is a big let down

[@sergelegault6027]

Don't buy the hype! I purchased this watch and despite a nice dial, it felt cheap in the hand and made weird noise when slightly knocked . The rotor was not turning freely and wouldn't charge on a watch winder. The bezel should be brushed since it attracts dirt and fingerprints. Overall a major disappointment

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Serge. Regards, #WR4K

[@eliastv5498]

It's just too expensive. The Chinese come out on top again. Please update us with the state of your collection.

[@watchreviews4k]

I don't have a collection now Elias. I only have my Black Bay 58. Regards, #WR4K

[@eliastv5498]

@@watchreviews4k I thought you may have added some others to your rotation.

@@watchreviews4k The original Tudor?

[@watchreviews4k]

Yes, my blue Tudor Black Bay 58. Regards, #WR4K

[@watchreviews4k]

I did have a PD-1692, and planned to add my Glycine Combat Sub to my Black Bay 58 to make a 3 piece collection; but I prefer just wearing my Black Bay 58 daily, so sold my PD-1692, and Combat Sub. I am not interested in any other pieces at the moment. Having reviewed over 300 watches in the last 2 years and 7 months, it has killed off my interest in having collection. Regards, #WR4K

[@woonfaseng8737]

i just don't like the china movement

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Woon. Regards, #WR4K

[@douglaswong3418]

China movement is not a problem, the problem is China movement selling at too high price.
There is a Chinese micro brand called Lobinni with same movement but only cost 1/3 of Baltic's price.

[@watchreviews4k]

Thank you for watching Douglas. Regards, #WR4K

[@ccr6042]

@@douglaswong3418 Saw this and hesitated. But besides the funky brand name, the finish has nothing to do. For instance the movement engravings are poor and have spelling mistakes. A movement is not all.
