Third watch in my collection?
I am looking for adding a third piece to my collection and have a narrowed it down to some choices. I am leaning towards the tissot but I am not sure

Kinda biased because I have one but I love the Baltic
I love Tissot but that Baltic looks great.
Tissot is to dressy for me, ı love traska but baltic dial is stunning
I'm curious what are the two other watches to have a clear view of what would be the whole collection.
I've had the Tissot in white, pre-Powermatic Era, I wore it a lot for 3 years then nothing, totally cold in front of it.
I love the Baltic (and the Micro-Rotor is damned cool !) but too dressy for me now and I don't like how a 36mm looks on my small wrist.
So I would go for the Traska. They seems to have a good finishing, great hardening, serious built quality. WR to be lifeproof and very versatile look. Can be dressed up and down in a minute.
You’ll love the quality with Traska, do it!
What are the other two pieces?

My first is a Timex Marlin that I got from my parents and my second is my Seiko 5 sport SRPH33K1
I dig Tissot, just not a fan of Roman numerals, so I went with the Baltic. But I think you would be happy with any of the three. 😀
I kinda cannot see how you can be deciding between these three. Two of those are dress watches, one has Roman numerals, one is a field watch.
Do you need a dress watch or a field watch? Are you ok with a Chinese movement?
I voted for Traska because that's what I would choose out of the three offered. I absolutely hate Roman numerals and the Baltic is very very handsome, but Im not so sure about that movement. Traska seems to be a solid company and with that miyota, you'll hardly have any significant problems. At the same time, the Tissot movement is probably the most solid choice movement-wise.
All are really nice.
I really enjoy the waffle dial of the Tissot
I really love the aesthetics of the Baltic
I really appreciate the two-level dial with 3-6-9 numerals
it depends what are you looking for. The Tissot and Baltic are dress watches, the Traska more of a sports/GAGA watch. I have a friend who owns the Le Locle and it is really tempting me, specially in white.
If is a GADA you want, Traska is the only answer that is correct.
