New Baltic out 5th October, my best guess!

So as per their Instagram story, there's a new Baltic out on the 5th, all we know is a solid bezel, recessed crown, and an olive leather/tropic. My best guess is that Baltic have yet to release a "true" field watch, and will come out with something Explorer adjacent. What are your thoughts?!

Haha I didn't read your post and just started trying to place an order.

·

I like it

·

Looks great. Should have put that second hand ball at the very edge of the dial though. Idk why but I really like that look. Fancy

·

Th recessed crown gives me pause, unless it pops out substantially for use. Oh, and it needs a bracelet option for sure.

I agree on both, just going off the render. I suspect the crown will pop out much like the Christopher Ward C63 Colchester.

I would buy this.

Here is it on Baltic's own flat link, i'd prefer a fully brushed finish on it though!

Yeah, that's the stuff.

Def a field watch, and you used exactly their typeface. I'd be surprised if it was much different than this. Great work!!

·

Recessed crown this thin is unusual but nice to keep the profile symmetrical.

Here's the teaser for those who haven't seen:

Really nice 👌 they should have just gone the full length and kept the 12 off 🤣

·

I really hope it would be a machinical field watch; would be instant buy for me on this

·

I'm a big fan of Baltic. I hope it has good water resistance.

·

2 more! On a NATO, and Fauxtina

Do you think the green will make an appearance on the dial?

·

Good point, especially given it is such a strong motif in the teaser!

·

Very very nice from Baltic... loving your guess too.

·

Let's see it! Love me some Baltic and I'd love to see their take on a field watch.

·

Off to see it tonight, hopefully. Will report back (if I’m ‘allowed’ to)….

·

Nicely done. I am hoping for a field watch, too.

The clear explorer design definitely would fit in the design language of Baltic.

Hmm, that would be interesting. I'm very fond of their designs but you always hear not so good things about their quality control and customer service. Do you have a Baltic piece in your collection and if so have you had any issues?

I bought the aquascaphe diver on chrono24, so I can’t say anything about their customer service.

I really like the watch, great dial, good build quality for the price (560€ on secondary market)!

In a French forum the founder says the lume will be “maxi lume”

and IIRC, dial Colors will be brown, sand, green or blue

3 6 9 12 numbers

37mm

·

And Japanese rubber strap, very soft
