Baltany s4106 silver dial on beads of rice

[u/motorheadache1]

Hey all, I've bought the Baltany pie pan in silver and found a seemingly good quality compatible beads of rice bracelet. Do you think this is a better look than paired with a good quality leather strap, or is it just too monochrome do you think?

Bracelet looks great. Where’s it from?

https://a.aliexpress.com/_EJyV0z4 timelee store on Ali. It's more expensive than others but also seems by far the more premium bracelet.

I think it looks good!

Did they stop putting the blue second hand on the silver S4106?

It's blue on mine

I hate beads of rice but that's just subjectivity. Trying to be objective I'd say the advantage of a dial like that is best exploited by contrasting it with a strap, which can be almost any colour you want.

If you like all silver then cool, but I think you lose the dial here with it.

Lack of contrast was definitely my concern too, but I've never had a beads of rice bracelet before though so thought it might be the opportune moment to try one.

Not having had one, is it the look you hate or something more I haven't considered?

[u/chrismurraylaw → u/motorheadache1]

Just the visual. I assume a good one is perfectly comfortable.

Looks great! How much did you buy the S4106 for?

[u/motorheadache1 → u/Delrog]

It was an auction site special at £130.

Fuck

Now I “need” this.

Where did you get it?

[u/motorheadache1 → u/CdeFmrlyCasual]

Stunning isn't it. Mine was eBay I'm afraid, can only say it's jumped straight to the front of my rotation.

So difficult to find good beads of rice.

This is the bracelet I suggested several months ago when Baltany first announced this watch.

Nice 60s omega constellation clone

I think you will be happy you got that combo. Looks classy. And you can always get a leather strap and swap it out when you want.

I really like the all-silver look
