Baltic Scalegraph ClassicvsCIGA Design SKELETON

Owners widely praise the Baltic Scalegraph Classic for its stunning retro racing design, detailed dial, and 39.5mm case size, with many finding it offers excellent value. However, some owners report issues with finishing and fit, describing the watches as light or "toylike," while others find the finishing comparable to higher-end brands. Reviewers and owners alike criticize the screw-down chronograph pushers as finicky and impractical, especially given the 100m water resistance which some feel is conceptually incongruent with its rally timer purpose. One owner experienced misaligned bezel markers and moisture ingress after pool use, leading to a return. On balance, owners and reviewers value the Baltic Scalegraph Classic's aesthetic and value proposition, though practical usability concerns regarding the chronograph pushers and isolated quality control issues are noted.

Owners widely praise the CIGA Design SKELETON for its value and willingness to challenge established brands, with some surprised by its quality. One owner reports their CIGA Design Series Z in Black DLC has been perfect for over four years, keeping good time and looking neat. However, some find the skeletonized movement's visibility obscured by reflections due to the lack of anti-reflective coating on the crystal. One owner reported their CIGA Design Z Series Skeleton broke after three months with no customer service response. Overall, owners rate the CIGA Design SKELETON highly for its surprising quality and value proposition.
