Reviews

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

Beda'a Eclipse II

The Beda'a Eclipse II is noted for its captivating aventurine dial and unique jumping hour complication, housed in an elegant 37mm case with long, curved lugs that provide a comfortable fit. Reviewers highlight the watch's significant visual appeal, particularly the regulator-style dial. However, the slim crown is described as difficult to operate, and the pin buckle strap was a minor disappointment. Some view the Sellita SW300 movement with a Dubois Dépraz module as a compromise given the watch's avant-garde design and CHF 4,000 price. On balance, reviewers praise the Beda'a Eclipse II for its striking avant-garde design and comfortable wearability, despite minor criticisms regarding the crown and strap.

From video reviewers

The unique time display with a rotating hour disc and a multi-level dial is a consistent strength. The 37mm case size was also noted by multiple reviewers. No shared weaknesses were identified.

Baltic MR Roulette

The Baltic MR Roulette features a 36mm case with vertical bezel brushing and polished lugs, and a vintage roulette-styled dial with multi-sector design. Reviewers note the dial textures create a perception of depth, with contrasting brushed and grained surfaces. The Hangzhou 5000A micro-rotor movement is visually appealing but described by reviewers as feeling rattly and producing a jangly sound when tapped. Overall, reviewers highlight the MR Roulette's unique dial design and finishing, despite some reservations about the micro-rotor movement's sound and feel.

From video reviewers

The MR Roulette's excellent finishing, particularly on the case and the bezel, is a notable strength. The bracelet's noise when moved around is a shared weakness. Reviewers do not explicitly disagree on any specific point.
