What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Baltic HMS 002 - Gold PVD

One owner reported poor quality with a plastic-like crystal, audible rattling, and significant timekeeping issues within 24 hours, deeming the Baltic HMS 002 - Gold PVD overpriced. Another commenter felt the design needed upgrades to its movement and crystal, noting a cheap feel to the dial's textured section. On balance, the consensus among the limited owner feedback is that the Baltic HMS 002 - Gold PVD has significant quality concerns for its price point.
