The must-have Macro Loupe for all watch lovers

This Baltic discovered by a Newsletter, several things in mind, this Tricompax that I had missed because of the bad internet connection... 
This Baltic Endurance watch has a design that is both sporty and elegant, with a stainless steel case and a matching bracelet that give it a certain robustness. The dark dial with well-contrasted indexes ensures optimal readability, while the turquoise blue seconds hand adds a touch of modernity. 
The colored insert on the flange (green, blue, purple) seems to be a nod to exploration or timing watches, reinforcing its technical look. 
It seems to be a pleasant watch to wear with its thin and light format. For the precision, I obviously do not have enough time for a return! 
I strongly invite you to go to the showroom in Paris !!! 


Finally a Baltic

Like many of us, we made a click.... For this micro rotor is sublime but the watch itself what is it really worth... Acquired on Kickstarter for 1800e public price 3000e.... All sold! I'm ranting about YEMA sorry, I had a huge pleasure to discover this YEMA, despite a problem of adjustment nothing to say this watch fills a lot of boxes but Yema's approach towards us, customers, gives me a bitter taste. The reductions a few months after the release, you bought a watch at 1200e they resell this model at 800e, what is the real value of our timepiece? I have 6 models from them but I can't wear them anymore, I like them but the operation of Yema is getting on my nerves.
To come back to our timepiece, it's fine, pleasant to wear even if its bracelet is a little too wide, the transparent case back is perfect to admire the micro rotor. It remains a classic!

The micro-rotor

My first watch that exceeds 4000e, I had to save this time ;)! But what a pleasure to have it on my wrist, yes despite its thickness once on my wrist I forget its size.
It makes me want to wear it whatever the situation, working day and night I sometimes use this 24h mode. I look at this watch between the bezel, the dial, the crown everything is homogeneous, this yellow hand that stands out from the black dial, its Manufacture caliber MT5652 (COSC), a reliability to all tests.
With your eyes closed, you need this watch at home!!!
Concerning the Nato strap on the photos it is from the erikasoriginals site

My TUDOR BLACK BAY PRO

The compulsive purchase for this watch, I chose this 417 es Bronze Copperhead X Revolution for its bronze case, which promises a magnificent patina over time, and for reference to Steve McQueen, a true symbol and timeless style.
A disappointment however for the place of resale (Asia) and not Germany. This gives the impression of a relocation which takes away a little of its authenticity (not to mention the customs fees).
But a magnificent watch nonetheless!!! Always a pleasure to have it on the wrist!!!

Steve McQueen

This brand had been catching my eye for a while, this mix of vintage-looking watches, combining robustness and precision, this second skin exceeds all my expectations of pleasure, no big logo or a huge name on the dial. Not forgetting the COSC certification, so if you want a watch with good value for money, this is the model! The original strap gives it this very comfortable dress watch look.

MA 5303

Everyone knows Yema, this one has what it takes, in 39mm it's perfect for me, the GMT is not used for traveling but to know the time of my in-laws ;), the luminova is perfect this turquoise blue (see photo), it is very reliable, I have it whatever the theme forest, evening, work. We quickly forget this first impression that it will be heavy on the wrist! The only criticism I would make is the date window which is black it makes reading more difficult with the domed glass. Otherwise a very very beautiful GMT that will not leave my collection!

Day and night I love it

March-Lab a French brand that for me represents elegance and purity. This brand has a story that touches me too. I didn't hesitate for long to know that I needed this timepiece.
Between the bronze that gives it life, the green dial that varies depending on the light (see photos, normally you can see the change). I specify that the bracelet is not original "J.B"
It is like a second skin, light, elegant, sporty... I really enjoy looking at it at the slightest change of light, it has everything of a great one, it probably lacks another more reliable caliber in my opinion.
See you soon



Bronze as we like it, right?

Hello everyone, what can I say about this Toundra, seen for the first time on the Charlie Paris website on one of the brand's presentation photos.
So here I am with my first watch from the brand, it is not my favorite but yet it is the one I wear most often, I do not fear scratches, shocks.... simple and effective.
I change the bracelets from green to gray, it goes everywhere.
The only flaw is its crown which is not easy to feel when tightening and vice versa.
that's what I can tell you!!

She's not my favorite and yet...

<p dir="ltr">The brand <strong>Tudor</strong>, founded in <strong>1926</strong>, is the fruit of the vision of Hans Wilsdorf, also founder of Rolex. His ambition was to create a watch that would offer the reliability and quality of Rolex, but at a more affordable price. So, from the start, Tudor positions itself as a manufacturer of quality watches at more accessible prices than those of the Rolex brand. This extremely clear DNA allows Tudor to position itself on innovation illustrated by its brand signature: &ldquo;<strong>Born To Dare</strong>&rdquo;.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Tudor brand</h2>
<p dir="ltr">From the 1950s, Tudor began to forge its own identity, although still associated with Rolex. In 1954, the brand launched the Oyster Prince Submariner model, affirming its position in diving watches. This watch featured exceptional water resistance, making it particularly popular with professional divers and water sports enthusiasts.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The 1960s and 1970s were marked by the development of partnerships with professional organizations. <strong>Tudor watches have been chosen by the French Navy and the US Navy</strong>, attesting to their robustness and reliability. The launch of the Tudor Prince Oysterdate Chronograph model, more commonly known as the "Big Block", in the 1970s is another important milestone for the brand. It was the first automatic chronograph with a date, a technological feat for its time.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Since it was taken over by Rolex in 1936, Tudor focused until the 1970s on professional models from the Rolex professional collection. The 80s allowed the brand to begin to free itself from it without offering models that would mark history.</p>

<p dir="ltr">2012 is undoubtedly a year. Important in the history of the brand with the launch of the Tudor Heritage Black Bay which will become the spearhead of the brand with a successful identity and variations increasingly popular with watchmaking enthusiasts.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Today, Tudor is recognized as a brand in its own right, producing around 300,000 watches each year, most of which are certified COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Testing) or <strong>METAS</strong>, an independent Swiss label created by the Federal Institute of Metrology.</p>

<p dir="ltr">(Updated September 2024)</p>

This watch is my first watch from a well-known watch brand and I don't regret it at all. It has followed me everywhere since I bought it and I have no complaints. The accuracy is excellent, I haven't had to reset my watch for over 3 months. Some people judge the thickness of the model but once on the wrist, it's not shocking at all! It fits easily under a shirt.

La daily watch par excellence

Sober, classic, reliable and I like all-steel watches, it's not flashy, I wanted a first Swiss watch, for me, I think I made the right choice, it's not Bing bling and can also be worn every day but hey, given my job, it's not really the case, it's a GMT not too visible not like all these GMTs with their multi-colored bezels like its sister the Black Bay GMT or its cousins from Rolex and knowing me, I keep everything, so not about to resell it, that's it, I'm not a big talker and even less a great writer.
Well I don't know what else to say.

My first Swiss

The black bay pro... A watch loved when it came out, many were skeptical about its thickness, but no. So yes, it is thick, despite all the comfort on the wrist is present and its thickness disappears as you wear it.

I bought it to have the GMT function, I live in Canada while being French. Also, it closes the chapter of years of study.

I had it on his nato, a nato of good quality but not being a fan of nato, I had to buy a few other bracelets. I recommend the president bracelet from Uncle strap, very comfortable with its short links, but without T-fit.
I also recommend the port Louis bracelet from Avel and Men, the yellow is identical.

A watch full of personality

As a GMT and "tool" watch enthusiast, I was initially going for an Explorer II, and I was also able to try the 226570 at the same time as the Black Bay Pro (BB Pro)! Despite the availability of the Rolex, I only had eyes for the crown keeper.
I appreciate this BB Pro first and foremost for its bezel, whose satin finish is very beautifully crafted. This bezel highlights a matte dial that oscillates between anthracite gray and black. It highlights studs made of a kind of ceramic and well-integrated snowflake hands. Obviously, the orange-yellow GMT hand energizes the design without overdoing it. The cream shade of the studs and hands brings a slightly vintage touch. Visibility is excellent during the day and the luminova is super powerful. Everything is enhanced by a domed sapphire crystal that gives beautiful distortions.
The bracelet would have been more elegant without its rivets, but it is very comfortable! The "on the fly" adjustment system of the clasp of this BB pro is amazingly simple and effective. Besides, I like to change my strap regularly, I never considered it for this BB Pro.
It is not a thin watch, I grant you, but when worn it is not shocking, especially thanks to harmonious proportions, a contained diameter of 39mm and an oversized signed crown; finally a mirror polish on the edge and fine chamfers finish off lightening the whole. She is an adventurer, she likes military shirts with rolled up sleeves; rest assured, a simple swimsuit is enough for her because she also enjoys swimming with its 200m water resistance.
The "true GMT" caliber MT5652 (COSC) is very precise and easy to use.
Ultimately, this BB pro is an efficient and comfortable watch that makes me smile every time I see that GMT hand set to the time zone of a city where I've had so many great times.

A GMT armed for adventure!

Another desire for a second time zone but which does not look like a GMT Master. I appreciate the hyper readability and warmth of this dial, with this very light and subtle patina of the ceramic indexes. The snowflake yellow GMT hand tipped the balance. Color is life! A watch with a very nice presence on the wrist even if it is a little plump, it must be admitted. 1mm or 2mm less thickness would have been welcome. But it's okay... The sunray brushed finish of the 24-hour bezel is remarkable. A diameter of 39mm, nicely chamfered horns, a nicely sized crown and a Manufacture MT5652 COSC caliber complete the whole thing. Another nice move from Tudor with a well-positioned price. Something you can't find in its big sister anymore.

Tudor Black Bay Pro

It is said to be a little too thick for its diameter, it's true
Apart from this small flaw, what a success this watch is!
Readability, reliability, robustness, night luminosity, power reserve (70 hours), GMT complication, harmony of the dial,...
I have long wanted a Rolex Explorer II, but this watch has all the qualities in my opinion, and I am always happy to wear it.
I bought it with a well-finished metal bracelet, but whose rivets I did not like too much, and which I replaced with a Nato which I find suits it very well.
It is a watch that can follow you everywhere, in town as well as on a walk, and that I often take on the weekend when I need a versatile watch that can withstand bad treatment...

The perfect day watch

Being young and practicing a lot of sports, sometimes extreme, and a fan of traveling, I needed a robust, precise, discreet watch with a GMT function. From there, in a budget of about €10,000 I had three watches in mind: the Rolex Explorer II ref. 216570, the Omega Seamaster Planet Ocean 600M GMT in 43.5mm, then the outsider, this famous Tudor Black Bay Pro. So I left, at the time for the first time at Harits1870. I was 16 years old and despite the shorts and the t-shirt I was extremely well received, the Speedmaster that I had on my wrist had caught the eye of the saleswoman... The three watches were in stock, and the first to be eliminated was the Omega, much too big for me. The second was the Rolex, its 100m of waterproofness seemed insufficient to me, in fact, I was going to practice water sports with my watch. So, to my great surprise, I turned to this Tudor which was worth half the price of the other two. On the wrist it was a revelation.
Since then, this watch follows me almost daily, arousing the jealousy of my other watches which remain in the safe. And suffice to say that I do not make life easy for it, it follows me on every sports session: trail, sometimes extreme hikes, road biking, bodybuilding, swimming, diving, a few impromptu rugby matches with friends, etc... Although it is really not the best for a mechanical watch, and its case has quite a few scars, it does wonderfully. Its precision is still as good as the first day (it remains within the COSC standards on the chrono-comparator!), it just seems to me that the rotor bearing dedicated to winding the watch is a little tired, but it doesn't shock me, it's even normal given what I put it through (but it's a professional watch after all). So I planned this year, after 3 years of extreme use to take it for servicing (but not polishing!), remains to be seen the verdict. 
Despite being one of the least expensive, it is without a doubt my favorite watch in my collection as it has followed me everywhere, and given the number of memories I have with it (I'm thinking of this big scratch on the bezel due to a stone it ate on an off-road rally!). This is the last watch in my collection that I will sell. I must admit, however, that the thinness of the Explorer II still catches my eye, it is its big flaw in this BB Pro, its thickness. It also has the lack of a quick date as a flaw, but given how often I reset the watch (never), it is a minor flaw. From a comfort point of view, despite being a bit heavy, it is rather positive. But I still recommend taking the NATO (of rare quality) in addition to the steel bracelet. The latter is one of the best on the market, the quick adjustment is great! However, I find that these fake rivets are too much, Tudor customers have been reporting it for years, but despite this they continue to put them... Finally, the flaw of this watch is that they tried to pay homage to the Rolex 1655 when it was not necessary. But despite everything, if you have a taste for adventure, this is THE watch you need. Its few flaws are minor compared to the quality and robustness of this one; you will go to the ends of the earth with this watch on your wrist!

La Toolwatch ultime.

One day I had this crazy idea that I could end up stranded on a desert island while I was enjoying a beautiful cruise on a dream liner. The ship sank in a few minutes, I was the only survivor and I floated and drifted for several days on a lifeboat to end up on a desert island.
What watch should you have on your wrist in this kind of situation?.... Typically, this BB Pro!
Waterproof and robust to withstand this shipwreck, precise and reliable to be able to count on it in difficult survival conditions, dual time zone to evaluate its position on the globe by comparing itself to the sun (second time zone - yellow hand - set to the departure location to know what time it is at home and main time zone set to the arrival location to have the local time once there).
A particularly appreciable comfort when worn as in terms of readability day and night, impeccable finishes, a real perceived quality, a very appreciable sobriety that makes it discreet, it is always appreciable in these times.
Everything is designed in this watch to offer the owner a durable product that can be trusted everywhere and all the time. And what's more, it is beautiful!
Its only flaw I find, for a watch that does everything, the lack of protection of the crown. Will the evolutions of this model equip it with a crown protector without distorting the TUDOR Black Bay style?....

What if I had to keep just one?...

<p dir="ltr">The brand <strong>Ollech &amp; Wajs</strong> was created in <strong>1956</strong> by Joseph Ollech and Albert Wajs in Zurich, Switzerland. Albert was responsible for the design, engineering and manufacturing of the watches, while Joseph handled marketing and retail sales. Before creating their own watches under the brand Ollech &amp; Wajs, they started their business in 1954 making steel bracelets for other brands.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The brand is known for distributing watches to units of the American army during the Vietnam War and for having earned its reputation among divers and pilots around the world.</p>
<p dir="ltr">After 12 years of negotiations and after having been its distributor for the French market, in 2017, Charles Le Menestrel, a watchmaking enthusiast, bought the brand. The current range includes models like the Ollech &amp; Wajs P-101 and the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/ollech_&amp;_wajs/p-104">Ollech &amp; Wajs P-104</a>, the&nbsp;<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/ollech_&amp;_wajs/c-1000">Ollech &amp; Wajs C-1000</a>, the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/ollech_&amp;_wajs/ocean_graph"> Ollech &amp; Wajs Ocean Graph</a> and the Ollech &amp; Wajs Navichron.</p>
