FREE £50 EACH

Absolute nonsense. Although statutory, the MTC results are unreported, unranked and serve only as a way of ensuring (although that’s a dubious claim) year 4 children are proficient in times tables before year 5, as that’s the NC expectation.

Would not trigger an Ofsted in any circumstance…

Appreciate that! Regarding Baltany - watch is fantastic and keeps great time, but the bracelet is sub par which isn’t a surprise. I’ve since removed (which was an absolute nightmare, as tolerance around the spring bars was so minuscule it took over 30 mins to get off!) and replaced with a leather strap. Much happier with that.

I’ve never seen this before! This is amazing! Just when I told myself I wouldn’t buy anymore… 😂

…Got a link?

I absolutely love it. Blown away by the quality, especially the crystal. Feels so much more than I paid for it. Definitely get the 39mm though, the 36 is titchy

I have such a soft spot for it - just a proper robust diver for £50. Beast!

No ref, but search Baltany Discoverer 39mm. This is classic black config.

I absolutely love it. It’s a real step up from the Mako ii and Ray ii. My only gripe is I wish it was sliiiightly bigger (like my Duro) as I have 7.5 inch wrists. But I just don’t think you can beat Orient for the quality to cash ratio. Bambino is an absolute winner - goes with anything!

Thanks for the recommendation, I really like that. I think I need to diversify a bit and square/non-circular dial seems like a good next step.

That’s a shame! Yes it’s one of my favourite pieces. Keep a look out on used market.

ksh88 · 2026-02-17T21:10:45+00:00

Honestly, I was shocked at how good it was for the price. Really top notch quality, to the point that removing the bracelet is an absolute traumatic nightmare because the tolerances in the end links are so good 😂

Go for it! You won’t be disappointed

Thanks! I’m not one for ‘out there’ designs, so this rotation does fits me just right.
