THE MOST ADVANCED AQUASCAPHE
A reworked version of our icon
Rooted in our identity, the Aquascaphe Classic is our longest standing watch. Born from our love for vintage watches, we aimed for an uncompromising blend of aesthetic and function. The result is a watch which is as capable in the sea as it is on land.
Seven years of hindsight, refined taste and technical evolutions have been shaping Baltic’s future. We are proud to introduce the Aquascaphe in its most refined form.
Every component has been upgraded to deliver a more advanced, desirable, and technically improved version of our iconic watch, while preserving the original’s spirit.
Adopting cues from the Aquascaphe x Vortex Swim or the Hermétique Tourer, the Aquascaphe MK2 is both an ode to the past and a look to the future.
Ultimate legibility
The Aquascaphe MK2 is our interpretation of a neo-retro diver. All was done to improve legibility, both in broad daylight and in the dark.
Its Maxi Dial features circled lumicast appliques made out of Super-LumiNova® BGW9. These 3D "super indexes" are 0.4mm-thick and paired with a modernized hand-set, lumed and faceted to ease time reading.
Encircling the grained warm silver dial, a printed and scaled railway track offers continuity between the dial and bezel.
Meant for everyone: 37mm and 39.5mm
Dressed in an entirely new case, the Aquascaphe MK2 is offered in both 37mm and 39.5mm to fit all tastes. Featuring wider lugs and a flat top crown guard, the Aquascaphe MK2 offers an enhanced wrist presence.
Extensive work was done to achieve the desired result. Angles are sharper, vertical brushing replaces circular finishing on top of the lugs, while staying horizontal on the sides. The polished flat top of the crown guard, while matching the crown, brings contrast to the otherwise brushed sides. The later feature drilled lugs, reminiscent of its tool-watch origins.
Ultra-resistant sapphire glass and bezel insert
Inherited from its older sibling, the Aquascaphe MK2 is equipped with a double dome sapphire glass and bezel insert, which are virtually impossible to scratch.
Known as one of the toughest materials on earth, sapphire makes this watch ultra-resistant. It will allow the Aquascaphe MK2 to travel through time like no other.
The bezel itself received a sharper finish, matching the engraved crown while improving grip. Its unidirectional rotation, 120 clicks, and minute-by-minute scale make for a safe and precise measurement of dive time.
5 Exclusive Rubber CLASSIC straps
The Aquascaphe MK2 is offered on five new Rubber Classic straps. This entirely new design makes for a dressier alternative compared to its Rubber Sport counterpart.
With a saffiano leather pattern and vulcanized rubber (FKM) construction, these straps offer unrivaled comfort and elegance while being water resistant. It is the ideal accessory to accompany the Aquascaphe MK2.
Versatile proportions
True to our inspirations, the Aquascaphe MK2 respects the vintage codes, without compromises, while using modern quality standards. Diameter is 37mm or 39.5mm at the bezel, with a 45mm or 47mm lug to lug and 12.9mm of thickness (10.7mm without glass).
Loyal to its tool-watch origins, the caseback, solid, presents the essential technical information. The engraving itself blends past and present by displaying geometrical waves shapes.
