UNDERWATER INSPIRATION S tyle and function come together in the new Tralfagar model from Ballast, an up-and-coming watch brand from the U.K. that draws its inspiration from the stories of World War II naval submarines and the men who bravely operated them. Equipped with a patented bezel control mechanism that is used not only to wind the mainspring of the automatic movement and but also to set both the time and date with ease, the Tralfagar features a bold face and beautiful detailing, along with interchangeable leather straps. The 46.5mm stainless steel-plated case houses a modified Japanese Miyota movement at its core that will keep the watch running strong for up to 40 hours. 60 | AboutTime Magazine
