SKIPJACK 2.0

Second Edition

Baltimorean pride is deeply tied to the city’s infamous port industry. Low-draft vessels known as ‘Skipjacks’ are still seen today dredging blue crabs into the shallow tributary rivers of the Chesapeake Bay. Travel back a century in time and you will find these same boats catering to the increased demand for oysters that bolstered Charm City into the industrial American powerhouse that it once became. The timeless utility and symbolic importance of the ‘Skipjacks’ inspired Towson’s watchmakers to follow up their signature Pride II with this elegantly-crafted GMT. Designed for versatile everyday use and built to be worn for a lifetime.
