Baltic is back with a new Aquascaphe in a new material. Their vintage inspired diver has always had a decidedly tool watch flavor. It?s classic and clean but in a no-nonsense kind of way, and because it’s made with modern manufacturing techniques it?s far less delicate than even the most robust vintage watches from the period. The new watch, in bronze, is a bit of a departure. It still pulls from the same period for its design inspiration, but the bronze lends the Aquascaphe a dressier feel that gives the watch an entirely new presentation.
