What people say

Owners + reviewers, side by side

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

Baltic MR Roulette

The Baltic MR Roulette is praised for its vintage-inspired roulette dial with multi-sector, multi-layer, and asymmetrical design, and faceted dauphine hands. Reviewers highlight the dial's depth created by contrasting textures like circular brushing and glossy or grained sectors, and the 36mm case's vertical bezel brushing and polished lugs. The watch uses a Hangzhou micro-rotor movement. However, reviewers note the micro-rotor movement can feel rattly and loose, producing a jangly sound when tapped. On balance, reviewers appreciate the Baltic MR Roulette's distinctive dial design and vintage aesthetic, despite the noted movement characteristics.

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.

Roue CHR

The Roue CHR is praised for its high-quality sand-blasted black-PVD case and sapphire crystal, considered superior for its price point. Its 41.5mm cushion case is noted as surprisingly light and comfortable, though it wears slightly larger. The unconventional dial layout with yellow hashes effectively evokes a vintage racecar dashboard, and the dial itself offers impressive depth with yellow accents that elevate its look. A drawback is the lack of lume on the main hands. The Roue CHR uses a Japanese Miyota 6S10 quartz movement and is water-resistant to 100m. On balance, reviewers find the Roue CHR offers impressive design and finishing for its price, with the dial's vintage aesthetic being a key highlight.
