As 2012 passes away, it is time  for us to present new  projects that will be ready for distribution in beginning of 2013.

One of them is a m/s Batory  series.

m/s Batory was last regular transatlantic liner, connecting Gdynia with New York and Halifax. This is why we picked it's story to name the watches made with well known marine style.
Batory line will first contain two models :
A big date version,

and sub-second version.


It shares same shaped case, the difference is a date pusher for a big date version, allowing quick date setting.



Watches are 40 mm in diameter (excluding crown), and has a sapphire crystal with internal anti-reflecting coating.
Both models are rated at 10 atm water  ressistance, so can be easy used as a daily watch.
Material - 316L steel.
Screwed caseback that conmemorates m/s Batory, here is it's sample :



Case is elegant and smooth-lined to fit comfortable any wrist, with grinded edges between the ears that will accomodate any type of strap/bracelet.



Diamond cutted hands for this project :



Both are  powered by a Sea Gull ST2526 movement, made with highest AAA grade.





In the future, we will present a hand winded version powered by the movement we have made for our exclusive usage.

This movement was made serial, and is used for a 303. FS series limited edition watches.

Actually, it is one of the few existing hand winded movements with central second.

After our modifications, power reserve exceeds 50h, in a preferable conditions it can hit a maximum of 56h, preserving still smooth and precise running.

Each movement is regulated, timed and checked 48h before sending the watch to the customer - we are trying to keep this standard for any of our watches.

Regulator - actually not at the moment.
But we have a single handed watch project - that must wait for a while, next year is already fully loaded with new models ;-)

Timbo, we will start preorderings for this little fellows in January, after presenting the live prototypes. You will all have the chance to see live what you are ging to have - a fair play.

Lovin' the Big Date model here! thumbsup.gif

I do wish the case size was more like 42mm, but that is one gorgeous piece for sure!
