What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

Synthesized for each watch independently from owner discussions, enthusiast forums, written reviews, and video reviewers.

Horage Lensman 2

The Horage Lensman 2 is recognized for its innovative photographic exposure calculator bezel and legible dial, making it a functional tool for outdoor photography. Reviewers highlight its well-executed 39mm hybrid titanium and aluminum case, COSC-certified K2 GMT movement, and overall good sizing. The watch is priced at CHF 5,450. On balance, reviewers rate the Horage Lensman 2 highly for its unique functionality as a camera tool combined with its luxury micro-rotor GMT features.

From video reviewers

The K2 Micro-Rotor Calibre is a key innovation in the watch. The watch's prominent lug-to-lug fit may be noticeable compared to other watches. Reviewers disagree on the importance of the sliding exposure scale on the bi-directional bezel, with some considering it a unique feature for photographers and others not explicitly mentioning it as a notable aspect.

Baltic MR Classic

Owners widely praise the Baltic MR Classic's attractive dial with applied Breguet numerals and granular texture, noting it looks far more expensive than its price. Reviewers highlight the refined, dressy aesthetic and the visually appealing micro-rotor movement. Some owners report precise time-setting and a smooth winding action. Accuracy figures vary, with one owner seeing +1 second per day and another averaging +10 seconds per day. Concerns exist regarding the gold PVD finish's durability, with reports of wear from strap friction. The 36mm case is described as small, and some find the bezel chunky and the watch's overall height significant. The Chinese Hangzhou micro-rotor movement is noted as potentially noisy and difficult for local repair, though Baltic's customer service and warranty are praised. Overall, owners and reviewers rate the Baltic MR Classic highly for its dressy aesthetic and dial finishing at its price point.
