Big fan of the Aquascaphe, own the original in blue gilt. While the recent bronze release tempted me, this does not.

Agree - this one a bit meh. Much prefer my blue gilt on the BOR bracelet.

I like how clean and simple it is, the silver bezel is lovey compared to all the black ones out there, 39mm, thank god!- not 42mm like so many others- should wear like an older Rolex.
For $600 it’s a lot of watch, and if I didn’t feel like messing with vintage divers (you can get a pretty nice vintage piece for $600), then this would be a good call.
Looks great on the factory BOR

Me too, and I especially like that they didn't try to make it look artificially aged with faux lume.

Agreed. That’s one thing both Certina and Bulova did right on their PH200 and 666 re-issues which was not trying to fauxtina them- but they bloated both which made them miss the mark- although I do own both and they are nice watches for little money, I would think this Baltic would be down-right svelte in comparison to those tubby-suckers.
