The big eye subdial seems to go to 30 instead of 45. There may be two dial variations (white and black). The logo may be "Massena Lab" with UG font.
All these suppositions result from the stories on IG.
Yup. This is where I can't get too excited about reissues, homages or "in the style of" anymore. I bought several but I find I just don't wear them and ended up hunting down the watches they were trying to emulate. Even the ones that are reisusses of watches i could never afford (like a UG) - I know they aren't "real" and it will nag in the back of my head. I've slowly been selling my modern/vintage pieces off as I replace them with real vintage pieces. I guess I would rather have a real vintage Wakmann than a fake vintage UG.
Baltic looks really nice for the price point. Although they might want QC to review the dials, check the running seconds register on this one, Image is straight off their website as of right now. yikes.
This might be a stupid question, but why does it say "Manuel" under the Bicompax? Is that french for manual? If so, doesn't really make sense, as it would be the only word in french on the entire watch front and back? unless I'm missing something.
Not to get too derailed, but my nephew was asking for inexpensive watch recommendations, and I thought Dan Henry also looked interesting, at around half price compared to Baltic. They are using mecaquartz mvmts, not mechanical, and I haven't studied either brand in depth, but I think it's cool there are interesting and more reasonably prices watches around.
So, on Sept. 18th, Massena posted a picture of Françoise Hardy in a racecar as a teaser-pic for the new release. So, does anyone know which watch(es) she owned?
I hope thats just cause of the bad corel draw pic 😁
