TSAO Baltimore Balt-Pilot Recon
TSAO Baltimore is a Maryland brand, and the Balt-Pilot is named after the Martin 187 Baltimore, a twin-engined light bomber built in the state and flown by the Allies in the Second World War. The Recon is its titanium pilot's watch: a Grade 2 titanium case under a hardened coating rated at 1,200 HV, 40 mm across, 13.6 mm thick and 48 mm lug to lug, with a boxed domed sapphire crystal and 200 m of water resistance. Inside is a regulated Miyota 9015, visible through the caseback, with no date. It comes on a quick-release titanium bracelet with a canvas and rubber strap in the box. Each colourway is limited to 50 pieces, and the ones we checked had sold out.
