Please give me your biased opinions
I’ve recently decided that a faux-patina, blue skindiver is what’s missing from my collection. I have an Aquascaphe classic on the way, and I think it looks amazing. I love the subtlety of the dial, and I don’t care about lume or some of the other shortcomings that I have heard about. I think the blue is almost perfect.
But, marketing is getting to me, because I’m worried about the difference in movement and lack of Swiss bonafides. I have found the Vulcain Nautique Skindiver for only a few hundred dollars more, and I don’t want to regret going with the cheaper option. Although, to be honest, I think I like the styling of the Baltic better.
Is there any chance someone here has handled both and has an opinion? Or is anyone so in love with their Baltic that they can say why it should be chosen over the Vulcain? Thanks!
