New watch strap, does it work?

The bubble back on the right is supposed to have the same straight hands as your D12, but I specifically asked for these hands from the NH38 version of the same watch and they swapped them in free of charge! Amazing value watches is right!
Thanks. Old post, I got a "red army" Merkur added to the list, and a Baltany Bubbleback coming in the mail, so I'll have all 3 Baltany watches with the same ST17 movement :)
The 1926 is possibly my favourite watch. The black strap makes it look quite formal, change to a brown strap and it can look more casual. great size and slim profile make it one of the most comfortable, and the MOP dial is amazing. The vintage and unique look sets it apart from many other options out there. You will love it!
I've recently purchased very similar to the watch shown, but with the Seagull movement with seconds sub-dial. I highly recommend the mother of pearl (MOP) dial, very unique to see in a men's watch and gives it beautiful depth an sheen. I also own the D12 "Dirty Dozen" with the same Seagull automatic movement. They're impeccably made in my opinion, and I love that Baltany has kept to the vintage size so they fit well for small-wristed people. The watch strap is only okay, you won't immediately want to throw it away, but you'll get the itch for something nicer given the quality of the watch.
