Very pleased with this watch. As an ex member of the armed forces I remember high quality watches like this for service use. Don’t have any requirement for day/date or arty farty dials - just a plain... See more

Baltany 'Khaki' Quartz Looky-Likey.

Delivery (from China) took the full 14 days, but the watch exceeds expectations of finish and accuracy.
So far, less than +1 sec after 18 days.

p.s.( i.e. a reply to your reply) You stated it would take 14 days when I ordered it, so I'm not complaining. I'm still delighted with the watch, which I regard as "A lot of watch for the money".

Thanks for the review Chris! We're sorry for the delay, usually we have UK stock ready to go and delivery is much quicker. This occasion we had to wait for our stock to arrive.

Excellent overall

Excellent overall. The watch sizes are true to the originals and not oversized along with accurate vintage style dials and hand colours/designs. The only issue with Baltany I have is some of their watches have Chinese automatic movements which had they been Japanese movements I would certainly have put them on my 'must have' list.

I love the watch, However…

I love the watch, never had an automatic before and I can’t stop staring at it.
However it seems to be gaining time, it’s gaining 3 minutes every 2 weeks.

The automatic military field watch I…

The automatic military field watch I bought in 2023 would not wind up - it had to be shaken to start and would then stop within minutes if taken off for any reason. The watch was given as a present and the recipient didn't realise this was abnormal, but just stopped
using the watch as inconvenient. After
the guarantee had expired the fault was
recognised when someone with a similar watch saw the faulty one. Although the watch has an
unrecognised production fault Baltany
decline to repair it. Technically they are within their rights - but this is a great way to lose your customers..

Discoverer 36mm a reliable watch that is value for money

I bought a 36mm Explorer homage called a Discoverer about 2 years ago and have worn it much of the time since then. It looked and and felt good quality particularly for the price, initially it was running about -4 seconds a day but that has settled down to about -10 seconds a day, pretty good for what was a sub £200 watch. The leather strap still looks good as does the rest of the watch, I would recommend it.

Like the style of the watch but luminous bits rather weak.
Had to chase for updates on delivery.
Delivered just within the 15 days but no updates were sent.

Hi Tim - we do send updates with tracking info, occasionally they get sent to spam so sorry if you didn't receive them on this occasion.

Enjoy the watch!

A good choice.

Choosing which watch to buy was the only difficulty part of the experience. I barely had to wait for it to arrive and as soon as I held the watch I knew Baltany was a good choice. Set to the right time and running so well it had to have been carefully regulated before being sent out. I've already added a 1921 to my wishlist.

This watch is amazing!

The watch looks amazing (a homage to a luxury piece by one of the premium brands)
Great quality, a nice weight to it, and keeps very good time + 5 seconds a day. The packaging is very high end and gives a great unboxing experience. I highly recommend baltany and I’m sure I’ll be back for another watch as the quality/price ratio is unbeatable.

Excellent value watch

Excellent value watch. I chose Baltany, as I have been a lifelong Seiko watch collector and was drawn to the design having a Seiko movement. I am very happy with the quality. The timekeeping for an automatic is recommended. I would have no hesitation in buying another Baltany and have recommended them to friends and family.

Excellent watch excellet service

The watch is very nice and its manufacture is excellent (Explorer type), but what really impressed me is the service, I got an issue on the delivery, not related with Baltany, and they where always helpful and ready to assist, in special Yolanda.
Definetelly I reccomend them!

Bought 36mm quartz field watch as a back up to my other watch. Excellent quality, does exactly what it says in the description, quality leather strap sets the watch off very nicely.
Highly recommended, really good delivery service.

Retro Diver

My Retro Diver arrived promptly and in good packaging. It was set to the right time and currently runs to + 2/3 seconds a day.
I could not be happier with it, I've changed the strap to a G10 but the strap it came with was great.
I have recommend Baltany.
