The 34mm case features an 18mm lug width, while the 37mm version has a wider lug width.

The watch features a flush-set crown, nestled into the case for a symmetrical profile and to prevent digging into the wrist.

Dials are available in volcanic black, moss green, or glacial blue, with a forged carbon outer railway track and a Super-LumiNova-filled central sector.

Time+Tide

Hour markers are 0.5mm-thick blocks of Super-LumiNova (BGW9 and C3) that overlap the dial sectors, creating a sense of depth.

Time+Tide

The Miyota 9039 movement is a time-only caliber that beats at 28,800 vph and includes a hacking seconds function.

Time+Tide

Baltic has collaborated with Specialized on a bicycle frame and Isadore on cycling apparel, featuring color palettes inspired by the watch and Icelandic landscape.
