View this email in your browser Welcome, Sufferers, to the second part of the second update for Albany Watches!



If you're receiving this, you've signed up for updates and Tales of the Sea.



Albany Watch Co. doesn't yet have heritage nor a history...so we're creating it with all of you, using our inspiration for lesser-known tales, traditions, and heroes of the sea.



So, here's the update you've all have been waiting for!



As covered in the previous update, The AMA, is inspired by the Japanese pearl diving tradition of the same name.

I have decided to use the excellent Swiss automatic STP 1-11 movement which is an updated clone of the venerable ETA 2824.



As a "desk diver", depth is always an important factor (I do actually dive) but without being ridiculous for a skin-diver, I settled on 30ATM (1000ft).

We all love to endlessly gaze at our timepieces, especially in the dark. The screw-down crown, sapphire crystal bezel insert, and dial are all thoroughly coated with BWG9 lume which has a nice pale blue tone to it.

I also decided not to create a monster on the wrist. So, the AMA sits right in the Goldilocks zone of comfort and wear-ability at 48mm lug to lug and 13.65mm high with a 41.5mm bezel and a 6.5mm crown.



It has a solid 3.5mm, AR-coated, double-domed sapphire crystal and the bezel is slightly inverted toward the dome to accentuate the vintage look.

Shown in the images are the Abyss Black and Black Pearl versions of the AMA. Look out for the AMA launching early 2018

Thanks for subscribing, and smooth sailing.
