POTOMAC

|

Ref. PO250-S

The Potomac takes its name from the river that cradled America’s earliest industrial towns. This manual‑wind wristwatch echoes the clean proportions of nineteenth‑century pocket watches, with a polished steel case and a simple, legible dial inspired by railway timers. Inside ticks a hand‑finished movement, wound by hand and visible through a sapphire back. Dedicated to the Baltimore & Ohio Railroad—the nation’s first common carrier—the Potomac pays homage to a time when machinery was built to last and watches were instruments rather than ornaments.
