Balticus Jagiellonia - Old Radium

Pride of Podlasie. This is how fans of Jagiellonia Białystok and the inhabitants of northeastern Poland talk about and think of their Club. The club is not only a sporting phenomenon on the country's football map, but above all a symbol of local identity.

The successes of the yellow-reds on the pitches of the Ekstraklasa and in European cups ignite the emotions of football fans across the entire country.

With a view to its unique community, rich history, and sporting tradition, Jagiellonia Białystok invited Balticus Watches to create the first-ever Jagi club watch. From the dial, through the bezel, to the crown, case back, and clasp – every element of the new timepiece refers to the Club's history, which began in May 1920.

Character inscribed in details.

A characteristic feature of the Jagiellonia Białystok watch design is the bezel. Its steel insert is decorated with a circular grain. A time scale calibrated to the forty-fifth minute is incorporated into it. The remaining fifteen minutes of the scale have been captured as potential added stoppage time. It is the quarter of an hour in which anything can happen.

The specially calibrated bezel scale is not all. The digits and indices of the rotating ring surrounding the dial are filled with two types of luminescent material. Super-LumiNova BGW9 X1 Grade is responsible for readings during regular match time. Meanwhile, the added time markings are filled with Old Radium X1 Grade material. The difference is visible both during the day and after dark.

Old Radium has a characteristic beige-sand hue before being illuminated. This is a color reference to the Jagiellonia crest located on the case back. Thanks to this, the basic match time and the added minutes remain clearly separated from each other.

The crest on the watch dial

The watch dial is matte and textured. The grainy structure of the dial is broken by double lines inspired by fragments of the club crest. On the dial, there are applied indices with polished frames. Their interior is filled with luminous Super-LumiNova BGW9 X1 Grade substance.

Particular attention is drawn to the indices at 6 and 9 o'clock and the double index at 12 o'clock. They feature finishes inspired by the upper line of the Jagi crest. The crest symbol is placed under the hand axis. The yellow and red colors clearly indicate the watch's affiliation.

The entire dial design is completed by massive hands. Their interior is also filled with luminescent material. A light and slender second hand serves as a counterweight to them. It is finished with a small triangle, the interior of which also glows after dark.

The dial is covered by a domed sapphire crystal. The watch's practical dimension is enhanced by the internal anti-reflective coating of the crystal. The combination of effective lume and internal anti-reflective coating improves the legibility of readings in varied lighting conditions.

The other side of the case is closed with a full case back, the central place of which is occupied by the Jagiellonia Białystok crest placed on a shiny black background.

Three versions of the watch. One character.

The Jagiellonia Białystok watch was created in three versions. Two of them are made of 316L stainless steel. They are distinguished only by the ring surrounding the dial. In one reference, it has a uniform gold-sand color. In the second version, the ring is kept in the club colors, yellow and red.

The third version of the watch was also made of stainless steel. However, its surface was covered with a DLC coating. This gave the steel a dark color and additionally hardened its surface. The watch gained a dark, matte color, which clearly distinguishes it from the versions without the coating. Thanks to the dark case and bracelet, the club accents gained stronger contrast and a more decisive character.

Each version of the watch retains the same club identity but interprets it in a different way - from a classic, steel form to a distinctly sporty version with a DLC coating.

The watch's automatic heart

The precise operation of the watch is ensured by the Japanese Miyota 9015 movement. It is a construction valued for its reliability and proven technical solutions. The mechanism is powered by the movement of the wrist. It provides a 42-hour power reserve. The mechanism can also be wound manually using the crown. It is also equipped with a stop-second function and a date display, which is placed at three o'clock.

The screw-down crown gained its individual character thanks to the letter "J" placed on its flat surface.

Sporty format, uncompromising idea

The heart of the watch is enclosed in a case with a diameter of 43 mm. The bezel has a diameter of 44.5 mm, which is 1.5 mm more than the case. The lug-to-lug distance is 52 mm. The case is 16 mm high.

The proportions chosen in this way give the watch a clear presence on the wrist and harmonize well with the elaborate surfaces of the case. Some of them are satin-finished, others are highly polished. The varied finish adds dynamics to the design and emphasizes the sporty character of the model.

Universality and elegance

The watch is equipped with a steel bracelet. Its solid construction inspires confidence. The clasp, signed with the letter "J" and the Balticus name, ensures a comfortable and secure hold of the watch on the wrist.

The set also includes a rubber strap, which changes the character of the watch and makes it lighter. This is a practical solution for those who want to wear the watch both every day and in less formal situations.

Limited series

The Jagiellonia Białystok watch is being produced in limited series. Each of the two steel versions will be limited to 100 copies. The variant covered with the DLC coating will be produced in the number of just 50 copies. A total of 250 watches in three variants will be produced.

Each variant combines the watchmaking character of Balticus with the symbolism of Jagiellonia Białystok.

The timepiece was not created as an occasional souvenir, but as a full-fledged club watch, designed from the beginning with the colors, crest, and football identity of Jagiellonia Białystok in mind.
