Baltic MR01 : Salmon Dial, Green Strap

I was infatuated with this watch when it was first released but didn't pull the trigger because as we all know infatuation doesn't... last. Then it sold out. I kept on looking at it though over the past many months to the point that when the recent pre-order for the second run came up, I immediately ordered.

What I like: the textured dial, salmon dial (it's my first), applied Breguet-style numerals, small seconds placement, quick release strap, signed buckle

Most impressed with the finishing on the movement. It is just GORGEOUS. I found it difficult to photograph with my phone camera and will try to take some with my SLR later... Anyway, I normally am indifferent about display case backs. On this one, I am so happy it has one. I can see just taking off the watch and staring at the movement.

What I dislike: non-hacking, lack of signed crown

Initial overall impression: Beautiful watch but not perfect. At ~$550 USD, this is a great value. Strongly consider, if you are looking for an elegant watch in smaller size (36mm, lug to lug 45mm).
