Finally, Baltany has released the Gem-style Hour Markers 36mm Datejust.

I’ve been waiting for this one for quite a while. It seems there aren’t many 36mm diamond-style datejust-style options available on the market, so Baltany has filled this gap. I also heard that Baltany has improved the Gem-setting process for this model.

Unfortunately, it still doesn’t come with the OTF clasp, which is a bit disappointing. I’ll wait for some YouTube reviews and may consider pulling the trigger after seeing more real-world feedback.

Do you like the Gem-set style Hour Markers Datejust?

Milifortic Sinn Homage

Nice AR coating, and the bracelet has a great brushed finish. Hopefully the OTF clasp will be updated and available soon.

Blue or Green?

Hi everyone, I’m planning to purchase the Baltany S4128, but I’m currently torn between these two colors.

Which one do you think looks better?

Cream Dial or Red Dial?

I bought this Milifortic S089 green version before, and I’ve been really impressed with the quality. The case is even thinner than Seiko's, making it very comfortable to wear.

Now they’ve just released two new colors, and I really like both of them. The problem is my budget only allows me to choose one.

I spend most of my time in the office. I’d love to hear from anyone who has worn the cream or red dial watches before.

How do they look and feel in daily use? Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Why don't more small seconds watches put the date inside the subdial?

Random design question: why is the date-inside-small-seconds layout so uncommon?

I get why it can go wrong. The subdial is already small, so adding a date window means the seconds track, numerals, hand, and date all start fighting for the same bit of space. If the date font is too small, it becomes annoying to read. If it is too big, the whole lower half of the dial looks heavy.

But when it works, I kind of like it more than a date window at 3. It keeps the main dial cleaner, and the date feels less like an afterthought. Maybe it is just harder to execute cleanly at normal watch sizes?

What’s a travel mistake you’ll never make again?

I’ll start with mine — I used to always overpack “just in case” items. Every trip I’d end up dragging a half-empty suitcase around, and most of it never got used.

Now I’ve learned to pack way lighter and just buy small things locally if I really need them. It makes traveling so much easier, especially when you’re moving between cities or dealing with stairs, trains, or budget flights.

Curious what mistakes others have made — I feel like travel always teaches you something the hard way at least once.
