BALTIC AQUASCAPHE CLASSIC BLUE GILT – MK1 (FIRST GENERATION)

Iconic Baltic Aquascaphe Blue Gilt in near-mint condition. This is the MK1 first generation, the original design that put Baltic on the map. No signs of wear; both technically and cosmetically excellent.

Why this watch
The Blue Gilt is Baltic’s signature colorway. The sunray dial shifts from a deep, rich blue in direct light to almost black in the shade. Gilt accents and faux-patina lume deliver an authentic vintage feel without overdoing it.
Important for collectors: this colorway is no longer available in the MK1 configuration.

Highly regarded within the watch community: 4.9 from 1,270+ reviews, with praise from Hodinkee, Worn & Wound, and WatchUSeek.
