Blackfin MK II – Pre Order / Shipping date – Mid of Feb 2024

Here is a lightweight and slim divers watch, inspired by classic skin divers.

WMT “BLACKFIN” brings you a comfortable wearing experience with classic chic. A slim aged case(14.4mm thickness), double domed acrylic crystal, a thin 2-way rotating bezel and a combo of steel bracelet + nato strap.

Skin divers use only snorkels at the surface and common diving equipment in terms of mask and fins are used. And a piece of skindiver watch

which tend to be a bit smaller, slimmer and oftentimes a bit less water resistant.

The skin divers can trace their lineage back to the mid 50’s. While the big brands were developing their own dive cases, many smaller marques lacked the budget to design these complex works of engineering in-house.

While several brands produced these pieces, they all worked toward a similar archetype: a slim, arched main case with a pronounced downward curve, semi-integrated squared lugs, tall acrylic crystal, a thin rotating bezel of either polished or painted stainless steel, and a modest depth rating of 100-200 meters.
