Thank you so much for WATCHing my video and I hope that you check out all my other content.
I release 3 videos per week, all watch related, including reviews, first impressions and general watch related topics.
I try very hard to diversify my content as well and will feature big known watch brands, microbrands as well as Aliexpress watches.
The majority of the watches I feature are in the affordable range but I do try and get some less affordable watches as well.
Most of the watches that I feature I have bought with my own money. I buy them to enjoy and wear but I also to feature them on this channel.
Being a smaller channel it is challenging to cover the cost of all the watches that I buy and partly because of this I have become an affiliate member with a number of companies including Aliexpress, Ashford.com and Jomashop.
If you are looking for watches from well known brands then it is worth checking out:
www.ashford.com
www.jomashop.com
If you are looking for great strap options then definitly check out:
vario.sg/
and
artemstraps.co...
As an affiliate member I may leave affiliate links in the descriptions of videos. These links will direct you to the watches that I’ve experienced, reviewed and would certainly recommend. If you choose to use those links I will earn a very small commission.
Thank you very much if you choose to use those links.

I am already impressed with this one.

[@Horizontalvertigo]

Regarding quickly reading the watch, you may know this already, but it's designed to be worn on the inside of your wrist so when you're driving you can read the time without taking your hand off the wheel. Wearing it on the inside of your wrist may help the orientation and quick reading

[@WATCHingJames]

Thank you. Yes. I’ve tied to wear it this way but it feels weird 😂😂😂😂

[@tsibren]

Baltany are really standing out from the pack. All of their watches are so well done, it's insane for their price. I do think this 1921 is their best yet. I ordered mine today, and can't wait to enjoy it.

[@WATCHingJames]

I am really enjoying this one.

[@Will_E_Wonty]

I received the salmon dial a couple of days ago. It is indeed beautiful.

[@WATCHingJames]

It is a lovely watch

[@doobeedoo2]

They offer two different movements. Which one did you try

[@WATCHingJames]

Mine has the seagull with the small seconds. The other is a hi beat mountain but it has the central second hand.

[@doobeedoo2]

thanks@@WATCHingJames

[@iamdinkel]

Have this one too! It’s become one of my all time favorites. Can’t recommend it more. Have the white/silver automatic version too.

[@WATCHingJames]

I really like it. It has been a great addition to my collection

[@dpns2ster]

I like it, but the fact the seconds subdial is oriented differently to the hours and minutes just seems off, even if thats how the original was. They should've offset the seconds register.

[@WATCHingJames]

Baltany also does a no sub second version which looks good too.

[@watchsixto]

I love it. I'm glad someone homages the Historiques American

[@WATCHingJames]

Me too

[@TheGlazzzmann]

Looks nice but being left handed, i could not read it on my right arm.

[@WATCHingJames]

That would be awkward

[@naomiredpath4351]

[@thegorn]

Baltany are all class. I'd love to see them also homage mainstream sports watches to compete head to head with San Martin, as I think they have the quality chops to do so.

[@MrBacchus18]

I like that they don't

[@WATCHingJames]

I am very impressed with their watches. I will definitely be looking to see what else they have to offer.

[@thegorn]

@@MrBacchus18 more choice and competition is always better.

[@MrBacchus18]

@@thegorn sure but I like the focus Baltany has on vintage models especially those that aren't usually homages. Let's be honest we don't need another Submariner clone that probably is made in the same factory as all the others.

[@dunderhay9169]

I love the case design, hands/dial finish and indices. However, I can't understand why VC made the 60 seconds marker in line with where 12 would be on the case of a normal watch, and not aligned with twelve on this dial, that is just daft. They do a centre seconds version withta Miyota 9039 which I like, but it is £245.

[@WATCHingJames]

I’m considering the other version too. But probably don’t need both

[@dunderhay9169]

@@WATCHingJames I've just won some premium bonds and I think I will treat myself to it 😁

[@WATCHingJames]

I’m sure you will love it

[@allegedly_pav5487]

Looks very nice… agree where I can’t afford the Cartier. This was looks good. Baltic vibes too

[@WATCHingJames]

I am really enjoying this one.

[@9426sunny]

This is very First time to see someone who doesn't mention about movement for watch review... Movement is a biggest part of watch, I believe, because it's a damn watch, not an accessory.

[@Horizontalvertigo]

That'd be true if our smart phones didn't tell the time better than any wristwatch, wrist watches are just jewellery with mechanical insides these days.

[@dunderhay9169]

It is only the first impressions video. It is an st17.

[@WATCHingJames]

Thank you. That exactly right.

[@WATCHingJames]

Hello. This is my first impressions of the watch. I do t always talk about movements or prices in these videos. When I do the full review, after having a proper amount of time with the watch and wearing it I will go into all those details. Thanks for WATCHing

[@DriveFastDriveHard]

Has anyone ever opened the case and covered the Baltany name with another logo/design? Can't stand these ridiculous names and ugly designs ruining a nice watch

[@WATCHingJames]

Some from AliExpress are terrible. I don’t mind Baltany. Sounds ok to me. But I just don’t like how they placed it in this watch. A lot of these brands will do a custom logo if you ask them

[@bobjosephs]

you can customize the logo for $38

[@firstnamelastname-ys3mz]

Just buy a real one
