Very glad to see them use the NH38.
The attention to detail is exceptional, hope to see them take a shot at making a Laurel Alpinist homage next.
I own a real Explorer, and had a few more, this is lovely and Ive owned a few Baltany's just wish the watch hands had a bit more curve like the original, so they dance in the light, might buy this anyway as I love dial colour
I have real one also (late 80’s printed dial) and this seems like a righteous alternative to me. 👍
What a terrific watch. Again, I hope Baltany starts expanding their catalog because they can probably give San Martin some serious competition. Thanks for the great review!
I hope so too!
Grear review!
I got my 39mm Baltany Explorer delivered three days ago. I'm the middle of moving house and have had the watch on every single minute, banged the crystal against door knobs and the likes in the process, and not any marks or scuffs so far. 😇
I can confirm that they have made the changes to the 39mm version regarding the bracelet and the signed crown. I have no way of telling if they made any changes to the crystal, but it is in my opinion flawless. I have 19,5 cm wrists, so the 39mm version feels like a great fit for me, even if I might pick up the 36mm in the black dial as a companion sometime later.
That's great to hear that they updated the 39mm as well. Enjoy it man!
I’m Not really a fan of Explorer homages but when I saw this dial I liked it. Bought it in the recent anniversary sale and needless to say it was love at first sight. The crystal is crazy good and my god that dial is great. Loved the review as always Steve
Thank! Enjoy the watch!
I really like the dial color. I think I might get the 39mm version since 36mm is definitely too small for me. I’m pretty sure I watched your review on the 39. Do you have an affiliate link for that one?
I think it fits you perfectly does not look small at all. My wrist is similar size and I wear 36 mm all the time. Great review keep them coming
Fantastic watch. I have the 39mm. I like the vintage Explorer looks.
Good choice!
Baltany produce excellent watches, for the money. This looks like it's up to their usual high standard. That dial colour is killer. Great review, as always !!
If they got rid of the fauxtina I’d pick one of these up in a second. That dial is amazing.
I was hesitating on this during the AliExpress sale last month because I couldn't decide on the colour. Your review might eventually sway me to this Chocolate as I've already too many black dials anyway. Hope another sale comes by around soon!
It is nicely done 👌 One of the best Explorer homage on the market. The best of all for me is the Smiths Everest PRS-25 🥰
The watch looks nice, was hoping they come out more colours, especially red sunburst dial, it will looks great in my opinion
I LOVE that dial color! I have a 39mm Tisell Explorer which is probably in my top 5 watches. I have a couple lesser 39mm Explorer-ish watches and a few 36mms. Definitely prefer the 39mm for a main watch. I probably won't buy one of these but damn that dial color!
I wear a Rolex Date Just for my weekend daily and a Baltany field as my work daily. I like both but the use of top hat crystals on the Baltany and other homages confuses. A flat crystal is thinner and reduces chances of bangs.
As soon as saw the first 39mm version released i bought it. I went for the brown dial version and i absolutely love it. Such a beautiful watch. I have a 7" wrist and it fits lovely however I really think the 36mm would fit me better. If only they had released them at the same time!!! 😳
Can I justify having 2 of the same watch??? Although I'd go for the black dial version.
Also, I kinda prefer the polished center links on the 39mm version, but would also appreciate the signed crown and clasp, maybe a bit of mixing and matching if I do get another 😂👍
Looks nice
Beautiful dial!
I think so too!
Nice review!! How you compare this explorer with pagani design 1751? Tudor Explorer Hommage in terms of quality?
I was wondering the same question because I just bought a 1751 for $55.00. It's the most beautifully simple watch I've ever held. Keep looking with a loupe but I cannot find imperfection.
I've got a 17,5 " wrist and I love 36 mm watches!
It's all personal preference. Ali wore a small tank, war heros wore 34 and 32mm watches. Wear what you like!
what do you think about the bezel, is it wider than the san martin sn021/020 ? on some angle the bezel looks really wide for a 36mm sized watch.
great video reviews as always.
I don't think it looks bad at all. I'd say maybe slightly wider than the San martins
@@EscapeWheel im very interested with the brown dial, very lovely. its just the wide bezel annoys me a little lol.
Steve, hey brother it's AmericanChees3. Any chance or you reviewing the new octopus explorer? Keep up the good work. I always look forward to your videos
What's up man! I asked about getting one and never heard back...maybe I'll try again.
As always Baltany makes a watch with an excellent crystal. I really wish Baltany and other watch companies would offer a Sterile/Anonymous Dial option and a unsigned crown.
I prevent scratching or damaging my watches, I use a Bergeon Inflatable Ball to open most of my watches with screwed-in casebacks.
The 39mm version has an unsigned crown and clasp.
I really like that, but i think that for a brand like Baltany it would be much more appropriate to homage such as the traditional 1016 with updated specifications at low prices. Maybe they're going that path, just building safe releases along the way.
Yeah, I'd like to see some more vintage pieces from them as well.
Nice review! What do you think of this one compared with the Cronos?
Pretty equal IMO. I think it comes down to the design, honestly.
@@EscapeWheeland can I ask which design do you like the most? In terms of thee color, I love how the brown looks!
@@jmlaso brown looks amazing. Black is more traditional and versatile. I think the brown looks better and offers something the Rolex doesn't, but it won't get AS much use simply due to the color.
So when you click on the provided link, is the model reviewed here the "black" or the "red"?
It's the red...why it's listed as red 🤷
I guess at times it can appear burgundy
Tisell, Alfa, Cronos, Cadisen, Pagani, Baltany or San Martin. Which is the best explorer?
Literally to many.
Best 1:1 modern is probably the Cronos or Tisell. New octopus craken
Explorer with twist, this it out the San martin
Don’t get the fauxtina on the current design. Maybe on brown dial, not black. Also, San Martin’s version with the PT5000 is thinner, which suits the 36mm diameter.
Agree with all your points. I think BGW9 with gold hands/indices would have been a good option for both color ways. The San Martin is still my favorite, but it's $100 more than this one, and the PT5000 isn't for everyone.
@@EscapeWheelwhat do you mean… pt5000 for everyone? Any inputs? Love your reviews!
@@Harvin87 some don't want/like the PT5000 for rear of reliability...they'd much rather pay less and get the ultra reliable NH3X movement
I only see “red” and “black” color options in your link.
What is the advertised color of the watch you are reviewing here?
Red.
Not too happy about a wonky screw-down experience on a new piece .
Possible threading problems never bode well in my experience .
It's not a threading problem, more feels like a gasket is slipping or something. Hard to say for sure. Threads are smooth though
So if this watch said Rolex on the dial, everyone would be grabbing torches and pitchforks while screaming for justice and stake-burning! But remove that little detail and everything's hunky-dory. Jesus...
나토 밴드는 모든 시계를 똥 같이 보이게 만든다
...in your opinion.
This is the first review I've seen on this channel.
I am not impressed. Almost 10 minutes and nothing but incomprehensible rambling about the watch case.
K, bye 👋👋
Never wear horse leather, you lost a subs riber !
Why?
@@alfredthegreat9543 i guess they really, REALLY like horses?
@@kennethg9277 Yeah, they must do 😂. Don't think they realise that when a horse dies its body is used for everything from dog food to leather. Just how it is.
