PROOF THAT BALTANY MAKE THE BEST VINTAGE HOMAGE WATCHES!

In this video I review the new Baltany 1926. This watch pays homage to a style of watch worn in the 1920's and 1930's. This particular watch contains the Miyota 9039 but they also offer a cheaper alternative that houses the Sea-Gull ST1700.

Seeing as they make this style so well, I'd like to see their take on a Vacheron Constatin Historiques American 1921

[asiantimepieces]

Amazing piece. I didn’t know about this model before, thanks for sharing.
Love the Art Deco watches style from 1920’s to 40’s. This watch goes immediately to my wish list.

[omarmb]

Thanks Gary I been looking for a review of this watch

[Mr-Safology]

I was actually waiting for a watch channe to review the watch. That may be one of the reasons why many haven't bought this watch. This is in my cart, for a good few weeks now.

[KillingTimeWithNorman]

Thank you for this! I hadn't encountered Baltany before. These watches are brilliant, and in fairly vintage proportions!

[mojoe]

It’s a beauty Gary. I personally love this vintage type aesthetic. Baltany are killing it at the moment.

[mikeg]

I like the small seconds version, but would be afraid of scratches! Thanks for reviewing watches that are different.

[delanoscott]

This is definitely a very well done take on a unique non-mainstream watch. I need to look into them.

[canadianwatchmonkey]

Charming watch that seems well executed. The font choice and hands reminds me of my Oris 1917

[wainair]

I just got the seagull variant and it is awesome! A great watch for vintage watch fans! All the perfect 20’s style and size with the added bonus of a modern crystal! The audience for this watch might be smaller but they have nailed it for those of us who love midsize watches!

[jeffreyromain]

It is indeed an attractive, interesting and nicely 'specced' piece. I will admit to liking design from the period that this watch pays homage to.

[douglascohen]

It’s about the accuracy of the movement. Great job!!!

[andrewd]

I think this is a stunning homage! I’ve got quite a few WW1 trench watches, 1920’s-1940’s watches, including a 1940 Rolex Oyster Speedking. This will be added to the collection! 😍👍🏼

[greggusan]

very attractive. Thanks for pointing out another unsung beauty. I've always dug the small seconds subdial, so might go that route.

[the_once-and-future_king.]

Another gorgeous banger from Baltany. For an Aliexpress brand, their build quality is amazing.

[AliasEveWatches]

Looking really good! Really like the case shape here and the blue cathedral hands is a great choice.

[DetroitDiesel]

The Miyota movement is probably higher quality, but the sub-seconds dial of the Seagull movement is surely more authentic for this style of watch...

[AlexanderB.]

The small seconds version looks even better, but of course the Miyota movement in this "regular" three hander is far superior. Although I do like the dial colour and the way the numerals are printed I will say I like other Baltany watches more, in parts because this one is fully polished.

[grahambawden]

Very pretty little watch but the full polished finish and price would put me off. The small second hand version with the Sea-gull movement would be my choice. Once again you have found a brand that others seem to have missed which is what makes your channel so interesting. Keep up the good work. 👍⌚😎

[Dr.Gunsmith]

I have a D12 automatic and the coronagraph quartz and they are literally fantastic for the price can’t be beaten.
