Congratulations, it looks lovely on you! A beautiful birthday gift as well!
Yes, Baignoire experienced perhaps the largest price increase, but watch brands across the board have had or will be having increases of similar if not more %
Anyway, may you soon enjoy your new watch for many years ❤️

I appreciate for your lovely words, tutu! 😊 This purchase felt especially indulgent as I already own a beautiful Ballon Bleu. Which other watch brands did you notice similar price increases?

Rolex in particular, especially PM models had steep increases on May 1st.
To keep on subject, I was able to place a preorder/full deposit for a mini Baignore in the yellow gold bangle model. Waiting is the hardest part, but I will be so excited to receive the call/text!! Luckily, I was able to try a couple on at the boutique (that were awaiting pick-up) to confirm size. I wish I took a picture! In the meantime, all your photos here are providing the eye candy I need! 🥰

Hi everyone…. Is it normal for the baignoire gold bangle to move up and down the wrist? Is it intended to be worn loose? Will the constant up and down movement damage it? How loose (or tight) should it fit?

I was told it was designed to have some movement and move a bit down the arm. As long as it’s not spinning around and you feel comfortable, you’re good. I tried one size down and one size up and both were obvious “too snug” (zero movement, almost constricting) and “too loose” (spinning around freely). Definitely Goldilocks scenario with this watch 😄

Thanks. Its just that when I raise my hands the watch slides way up. Then again down. Its like wearing a loose bracelet lol. I’m wondering if thats normal. Did you go with the loose fit? I wish they had more variety of sizes.

I am still deciding whether to keep the mini baignoire yellow gold bangle or return it. I have noticed that when I try it on the dial’s weight makes it move to the side of my wrist (almost going to roll). I know that it is supposed to fit a bit looser than a traditional watch, but was wondering if the movement of the dial towards the side is normal?

What size did you get ? It shouldn’t roll all the way to the side of your wrist unless the size is too large on you

I received my mini Baignoire after a month’s wait! This is a size 16 and can slide 2-3 inches down my arm. I fortunately was able to try 1 size up and down and they definitely didn’t work for me. I don’t plan to stack but for reference, on my other wrist, my Loves are 18 (loose), and Clash is 16 (perfect). In comparison, the 16 watch is a perfect match to the 16 clash.
Happy to join you all with this lovely treasure 🥰 Thank you for allowing me to share ❤️❤️
