G. Gerlach's OTAGO series

Hello again
I have told you, that a lot of things will happened this year, havn't I ?

Well, this is next one of them

We were targeting this model at fall of 2012, but had to master the case a bit.

Now it is finally ready, and the first pieces will be shipped to the people who already preordered them back in December.

So, let the photos talk







Otago line is our second generation diver's watch, that follows Dzik&Sokol. Its main thema is a Joseph Conrad, vel. Jozef Korzeniowski, one of the most famous polish novelists ever. Its marinistic novels gained an extream popularity, especially as he was publishing mostly in English. A sail ship he commanded, the Otago bark, is the story closed to the hearts to all sailors&people who enjoy marinistic novels. It's history, and the ships fate, is something that binds Poland, United Kingdom and Australia together - you may still find bark reminescents in Otago Bay, Australia - we will show it in details in the materials attached to the watch.



The case is made with very popular lately tonnau convention, however we decided not to push for a fancy oversized style. The case keeps a 42 mm without a crown dimension, same time the case is accompanied with big, 9 mm diameter crown and tall and thick, bi-directional bezel to keep a decent look for the watch itself. Still, it fits the wrist perfectly well. Tested&approved



The case is same that was used in a LE FOKA model, however the colour pattern is different.



Here you have them all :


The dials are layered, with upper outer ring of different colour, and applied polished steel indexes with luminous. Orange version has a metalic-pearl tone, while the graphite one is tonned from ligter middle to darker edges.



It gives a great stereoscopic effect to the watch, and I hope that all watch enthusiasts will appreciate it







A sapphire glass is covered with anti reflective coating. Case is made of 316L steel.

Watch is powered by a Sea Gull ST2551 AAA grade movement, that gets an additional servicing and timing here in Zielona Gora.

Hands, dial, and bezel are all covered with a luminova.



I belive you will find them worth to discover
