Reviews

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

Furlan Marri Disco Volante

The Furlan Marri Disco Volante is widely praised for its intricate, retro-futuristic design, with reviewers and owners highlighting its detailed sector dials, creative lume application, and the beautifully finished manual-winding ETA/Peseux 7001 movement. The 38mm case, often noted for its thinness at under 9mm and lugless appearance, is considered very wearable and compact, capturing vintage charm. Some reviewers consider the $2,780 price point high, attributing it to the movement finishing, and a few find the design polarizing. On balance, owners and reviewers rate the Furlan Marri Disco Volante highly for its unique vintage aesthetic and refined movement finishing at the price.

From video reviewers

The ultra-thin profile and vintage aesthetic are cited as strengths. Water resistance is a noted weakness. Reviewers disagreed on the value proposition compared to alternatives.

Baltic Prismic Stone

The Baltic Prismic Stone is widely praised for its unique and striking natural stone dials, with owners and reviewers highlighting the captivating variations found in materials like bloodstone, pietersite, lapis lazuli, and red agate. The watch's 36mm case, often described as thin and well-finished with a combination of stainless steel and titanium, contributes to its refined retro dress watch appeal. Some owners find the small, recessed crown uncomfortable for winding, and the 30-meter water resistance is noted as delicate. Opinions are split on the Milanese bracelet, with some finding it may not articulate well on smaller wrists. Overall, owners and reviewers consider the Baltic Prismic Stone a value-packed offering, primarily due to its exceptional and unique stone dials at its price point.

From video reviewers

The unique natural stone dials are a standout feature of the Baltic Prismic Stone. The slim 9mm case, constructed from stainless steel and Grade 5 titanium, is also a notable aspect. However, some buyers may find the price of €1,300 to be a trade-off, considering the watch's Swiss movement and slim profile may not justify the cost compared to competitors.
