Baltany MOP 1926
This arrived from Aliexpress today. Only Chinese watch that I've received where the warranty card isn't blank.
I've not got an instant buzz, usually do when unboxing a watch🤔 Hopefully this is down to the mesh strap, my fault after reading comments about when buying a watch, go for the bracelet and not the leather, as it's better value, and (I assumed) a leather strap of ones own choice can be added later, while the mesh can be used elsewhere.
Update later, opinion may be jaded as I have man flu. Disinfect your phones guys, ladies you are safe, you have immunity. You'll never understand what we go through. 🤔🤔😁
Slightly eccentric, wicked sense of humour. Self confessed watch cheapskate, who tinkers with watches. Love motorbikes, to date, I've ridden about 250,000 miles, 113,000 of which are on my BMW 1150GS....
Lovely little Rolex homage. Looks better on a strap IMO.
I think it looks spectacular! Give it some wrist time and see how you go.
I've been very tempted by exactly that model but have resisted so far as it's probably too similar to this pointer date of mine with the bezel and cathedral hands.

Love the Oris big day pointer
Looks great though! Congratulations!
Gratuitous lume shot
Lume is short lived compared to my other Aliexpress purchases

Does catch the light nicely.

Seems to be growing on me. 😊Ah, still has a bit of plastic protection on the mesh.
Good looking #baltany
Congratulations, looks great!
One week later, and none of my other watches have seen my wrist! Unheard of.
Amazingly not had to correct the time. Sub seconds doesn't hack, so just relying on the minute hand, it's about 10 seconds fast. Wow😊 Not much info. to find about the movement. Seagull ST1701.

Really glad this is growing on you 😁
I rarely wear the same watch twice in a month and I've wore this one 5-6 times in the first month I've owned it and my usual taste is big chunky dive watches!

Leather strap update.
