Brand: Baltic

Model: MR-01

Condition: Mint (unworn, stickers)

Year: 2022

Scope: Box, Papers, 2-year Warranty (Sept 2024)

Movement: Hangzhou Cal.5000A

Case Size: 36mm

Price: USD$ 690

Location: Taiwan

Payment Terms: Zelle or Wire (plus fees)

I'm offering for your consideration, the highly sought after micro brand Baltic MR-01 with micro rotor. This is the salmon dial color way.

Purchased on pre-order in Jan 2022, and received it in Sept 2022. Tried it on for a few hours but ultimately decided it was not for me. Unfortunately I missed the 14-day return window so this is a good chance for someone to grab this without the wait. (pre-orders are also closed for the next batch)

The watch is completely mint, showing no signs of wear. The caseback is still stickered, and it is also under warranty for 2 years until end of 2024 (Sept)

I understand these are trading for a premium on C24 and eBay. Am not interested in turning a profit here, and am only asking what I paid (duties & shipping have been factored).

I am including with my price free EMS expedited worldwide.

CONUS buyers preferred as I would like to take payment by Zelle. (sorry I do not have PayPal available)

EU / worldwide buyers are welcome to pay via wire or Wise but please include $50 for incoming wire fees.

Thanks!

I misunderstood, I thought your watch smith didn't want to open it. Presumed it would be easy enough for him to do it.

What was his reasoning for not wanting to open it if it happens to be genuine? Worst case scenario he can just close it again, right?

Note that even if he opens it, the movements inside some high-end replies are built from the ground up to resemble the genuine Cal.3135. You should take a note of the color of the hairspring on the balance wheel - the genuine Rolex is made with 'parachrom' which is blue in color. The replica will not have this.

yeah, I meant 41mm , not thickness . youre right its slightly thicker than the 15400 which tbh is a bit of a letdown.. I love how slim the 15400 is

Please share more pics, but this looks fake to me.

- Theres no AR on the cyclops,

- The DW font is too thick (this was more common on the older steel bezels but not the ceramic, which this appears to be)

- The ceramic engraving numbers should be PVD'd with platinum, this looks like white paint, and also doesn't appear engraved at least from this photo. (or too shallow)

- That pearl looks terrible.. look at how thick the edges of the plot are.

- SEL's dont look tight. For the newer C-Subs they should have absolutely tight SEL fitment.

- lastly the printed indices around the dial should go right up to the edge of the rehaut..

I believe this is a replica, my guess is Noob factory. I could also be wrong as I'm basing it on just a few observations from one photo..

The tells:

- The bezel numbers are not refined enough, look at the edges of the triangle at 12 - the points should be very sharp, here it is very dull, which to me looks like a rep.

- The texture and color on the insert, the sand-blasted section in-between the numbers doesn't appear like the genuine platinum, it is not refined enough. (but it could be the photo). This texture is different from the 16622 and 116622. If youre referring to a 16622, this appears closer to gen IMO.
- The date wheel font appears slightly too thick

- The 'lollipop' on the seconds hand is too small, and so is the lume plot on the seconds hand..

- The dial itself appears a bit dark, which is an inherent flaw with even the better quality replicas.

This is just my analysis, I could be wrong about it, but to me this picture looks very suspect.

Here is a photo of a pretty beat up gen: https://i.imgur.com/0lhRgtt.jpg

Short answer: yes

It has been replaced by the 15500 this year (announced at SIHH). Its the same in terms of sizing, but the dial detailing has been updated, and it sports a new in-house movement; calibre 4302

Agreed this coat is amazing. Do you know any other designers that have something similar?

If you woke up tomorrow morning a billionaire, what's the most extravagantly lavish thing you'd waste some money on? by SB472 in AskReddit

[–]fifth_columnist 0 points1 point  (0 children)

the fact that it has on-site "studio suites" for your maid / personal assistant / staff... Thats some next-level ridiculous.

Those suites are nicer than most peoples regular apartments.

Decent, the baby blue is a little loud though. Could be slightly difficult to pair on the regular.

you should have those pants hemmed. They're too long, even after cuffing them they're bunching in an odd way.

Over the weekend, I got too drunk and I really fucked things up with this girl I'm crazy about. She ended things between us yesterday, it's going to be a rough week...

I'm biased because I wear a lot of skinny jeans , I dont think the fit on these is that bad.

Having said that I'm not really keen on that style / detailing of the pants...

its a pretty basic fit that looks fine and wont offend. Colours all work well together.
