We love a good quality dive watch aesthetic here at The Coolector and the guys at French watchmakers, Baltic, are one of the best in the business so far as this is concerned so if you’re of a similar mindset, you’re going to want to check out their exemplary line up of watches. Check out our pick of 5 of the best watches from Baltic below:
AQUASCAPHE GMT in Orange | €920
First used in the 60s and 70s by airline pilots on long-haul flights, GMT watches have today become much more mainstream and celebrated. Thanks to the fourth hand, the time is displayed in 24-hour format over several time zones at a glance. An authentic tool watch designed to equip modern globetrotters around the world. Result of a unique combination of vintage and contemporary aesthetic codes, this watch is an elegant complement to the BALTIC universe.
AQUASCAPHE in Blue Gilt | €580
The AQUASCAPHE is capable of diving to depths of up to 200m. Tool watches are often considered to be the ultimate daily watch as they’re waterproof, scratch-resistant, shockproof, and they look great in any situation and this Blue Gilt offering is as impactful as they come. It comes with a double-domed sapphire glass that makes it virtually impossible to scratch. Sapphire is known as one of the toughest materials on earth, making this watch ultra-resistant.
AQUASCAPHE DUAL-CROWN 5th Anniversary | €650
Five years ago, Baltic was born and launched its first two watches. A project between enthusiasts, which today has become a celebrated watch brand. Without their team, partners, faithful customers and their friends, this 5th anniversary could never have taken place and this watch is a celebration of that fact. The design of this watch throws back to Baltic’s three founders’ youth in the 90s, a period where streetwear became the norm, with bright, fun and vibrant colours.
HMS 002 in Black | €360
The three different models in Baltic’s HMS 002 collection now integrate the Miyota 8315 automatic movement. Unlike its predecessor (the Miyota 821A), this caliber offers an additional 18h of power reserve for a total of 60h. In addition to the increased performance, the finishes have also been improved: the precision parts are more aesthetic and the anti-oxidation screws have been blued. This is a three-hand automatic watch that boasts a black dial and the indexes are painted in white, as is the railway. At 38mm in diameter, it’s the ideal dress watch as it offers a relaxed vintage vibe.
BICOMPAX 002 in Silver | €540
The case of the BICOMPAX 002 has been inspired by watches from the 1940s. However, it still provides a contemporary aesthetic with its distinctive finish: linear brushing on the side, circular brushing on the lugs, and mirror polishing on the last step on the case. Each variation catches the light superbly, making for a simple yet very attractive case. The BICOMPAX 002 SILVER has an elegantly slim profile thanks to the use of acrylic glass.
