Just added to the collection

Added this to the collection earlier this week. My first Baltic and my first GMT. I have been eyeing Baltic for a little while now. I met some of the Baltic guys at the WindUp Watch Fair last year in NYC. My buddy bought a non GMT Aquascaphe with a white face and I’ve kind of been itching for my own. Loving it so far! Also, I’m new to the Watch Crunch community, looking forward to sharing more here!

Awesome! Is that the rubber strap on yours? If so, how do you like it? Thinking about picking on up for mine to be able to change things up every once in a while.

It certainly does the job! There is quite a nice signature on the buckle, and it is pretty comfortable. Query, though, if it is worth paying to have it shipped to the States. I’m sure you could find equally as good, if not better, rubber tropic straps locally:

nice watch! I'm looking for a GMT/Diver and Baltic in this exact colour pattern is quite tempting! I'm a bit on a fence between the Mido OceanStar GMT or this one.

A friend of mine suggested the Mido as an option. Personally however I’m just not a huge fan of the dial. But it is a great alternative!

FWIW, Fluco makes a comfortable, quality tropical style strap in various colors,

and Holben's carries them. I'm very happy with mine. Pic ain't the best, but hopefully will give you a rough idea.

Thank you! Your Baltic is a really nice piece. Never seen one live, but judging by your photos, definitely looks good. If you've never purchased from them, Holben's is awesome. Great service, decent prices, and a good selection.

I know nothing of the brand but I will say that it is a really good looking watch!
