SKIPJACK I

The Skipjack line was first made available to the public in select retailers in 2011. The release of the Skipjack I, available in silver or black, was Towson’s first GMT timepiece. Featuring a stamped guilloche dial with contrasting printed numerals. The traditional design language was taken from the Mission I with its simple two-tone palette, classic Roman numerals, and high-polish stainless steel case. Powered by the Swiss Made Caliber 2893 automatic movement, assembled, decorated and calibrated in-house by Towson watchmakers. Revealed by a sapphire crystal exhibition case-back. Providing measurements for seconds, date, minute and hours in two separate time-zones. A daily wearer designed for a world traveler with sophisticated taste.

The Skipjack GMT speaks to the versatility of pastime design. Conceived out of a deliberate collaboration between traditional and progressive principles. Shining light on the everlasting utility of innovations from the past. 

Named after the Chesapeake Bay’s distinctive sailing vessels that evolved in the late 1800’s as a result of increased demand for oysters. Today, they are used to dredge blue crabs into shallow grassy reaches of the bay’s tributaries. 

Between the two-time-zone GMT complication and the “then-and-now” principle of design, the Skipjack materializes various moments in time. Like the vessels in the Chesapeake Bay, the symbolic value and utility of Towson’s distinctive GMT will forever be called for. An instrument specifically designed for timeless appeal and use.
