Description
Mateusz Przystał, our lead designer for the Moonfish, was tasked with creating a "first-choice watch." Completely uncompromising, utilizing the finest materials. A timepiece that would remain a benchmark of quality in design and craftsmanship for years to come. The Moonfish became a turning point for us. Working on this project, we wanted to step outside our comfort zone and create a small masterpiece of watchmaking art.
The first challenge was to use 904L stainless steel for its construction. The Moonfish is the first watch on the market from a Polish manufacturer to use this type of material. It is significantly more resistant to corrosion. Due to its increased hardness, it is also much more demanding to process and more expensive than 316L steel, the standard material used in watch cases and bracelets.
The Moonfish watch's unidirectional bezel deserves special attention, as it is meticulously crafted. The multifaceted cuts on its crown are exceptionally refined. The result is a surface that's not only beautiful but also practical, making it easier to operate the bezel.
The Moonfish is a watch that loves light. All its key elements were designed to reveal its true colors in the sunlight. The watch's dial is made of natural aventurine. This stone, in the light, shimmers with thousands of stars, reminiscent of a luminous summer night sky. Together with the precisely finished bezel, it emphasizes the watch's jewelry-like character. Fans of Balticus's design will also appreciate the crown. On its top, the letter "B" is filled with Swiss Super-LumiNowa X1 luma. This substance, which is easily activated, illuminates the entire watch with a pleasant blue light. The hands, indices, and numerals on the bezel insert are filled with luma. The luminous substance used is among the world's leading and is used by the most renowned watch manufacturers. Swiss Super-LumiNowa X1 illuminates not only the watch but also the immediate surrounding area. A characteristic feature of this substance is its durability.
The Moonfish's chief designer also paid attention to the caseback, which was designed in a minimalist style. The watch's name is placed in its center, appearing to float among the stars in the sky. The only information on the caseback ring is the watch's limited edition. The Moonfish in this configuration, with an aventurine dial. only 150 copies were produced.
Technology
The Moonfish is powered by the Miyota 9015 automatic movement. This exceptionally durable and proven design allows the watch to be wound by the movement of the wrist. The Moonfish offers a 42-hour power reserve and is mounted on 24 jewels. The watch features two complications: the date and the stop-seconds.
The watch's water resistance is a decidedly above-average 200 meters. Moonfish loves the water, performing well during everyday activities. Its 20ATM water resistance also allows it to be worn while diving or swimming. A distinctive feature of the Moonfish is its screw-down crown.
Shield
The Moonfiha BLT-BTMFBA dial is made of natural aventurine. This stone belongs to the quartz group and contains tiny inclusions of minerals such as fuchsite, hematite, pyroxenes, and ilmenites. These give it its characteristic luster and beautiful appearance. It is found in India, Egypt, and the Urals in Russia.
A date window, finished with a high-gloss bezel, is located at 3 o'clock. The minimalist design of this part of the watch is highlighted by the subtle Balticus inscription at the top, and the model name and movement type located on the opposite side of the dial.
Materials
The Moonfish is crafted using the highest quality materials. The watch case and bracelet are crafted from 904L stainless steel, guaranteeing hypoallergenic safety and enhanced corrosion resistance. This type of stainless steel, with its exceptionally polished finish, is used in the production of timepieces by the world's finest watchmakers. The bezel insert is made of steel and has a matte finish, perfectly complementing the satin-finished case sides. The Moonfish dial is protected by a flat, scratch-resistant sapphire crystal with a double anti-reflective coating.

Vision and Project
When designing the Moonfish, we set an ambitious task for our designer, Mateusz Przystały: to create a completely uncompromising watch. We wanted to step out of our comfort zone and create a small work of art that will be a benchmark of quality and Polish design for years to come. The Moonfish is a turning point for us – the fruit of passion and the pursuit of perfection.
Pioneering Materials: 904L Steel
We are proud to be the first Polish manufacturer to introduce a watch made of 904L stainless steel to the market.
- Why 904L? It is significantly more corrosion-resistant and harder than standard 316L steel.
- A captivating shine: The unique nature of this material allows for an exceptional, almost jewelry-like luster that sets our timepieces apart from the competition.
- Safety: 904L steel is hypoallergenic, so you can enjoy your Moonfish without any concerns about your skin's comfort.
The Heart of the Watch: Miyota Technology
Inside the case is a proven and highly regarded Japanese movement that ensures reliability in all conditions:
- Movement: Automatic Miyota 9015 (wound by wrist movement).
- Power reserve: 42 hours.
- Jewels: 24 jewels.
- Additional features: Date display and hacking function for precise time setting.
Moonfish
Design: A Play of Light and Detail
We designed this model to reveal its true character in the sunlight.
-
Dial: We chose aventurine dials to capture the magic of a star-filled sky beneath sapphire crystal. This unique material makes every glance at the watch a journey into the depths of space – shimmering particles within the dial come alive with every movement of the wrist, creating a unique and mesmerizing spectacle of light.
- Bezel: Our original one-way bezel design combines refined aesthetics with practicality. The multi-faceted cuts not only look beautiful but also make it easy to grip securely.
Masterful Visibility: Super-LumiNova X1
We haven't forgotten about the details that please the eye after dark. We have used the world's leading luminous substances:
- Swiss Super-LumiNova X1: Fills the hands, indices, and bezel numerals, glowing with a soothing blue light.
- Our "signature touch": We have placed the letter "B" on the crown, which also glows in the dark. This is a detail we are particularly proud of.
Durability and Usage
Although the Moonfish looks like jewelry, it is a thoroughbred diver:
- 200m (20 ATM) water resistance: Allows for swimming and diving with confidence.
- Security: The screw-down crown ensures that the movement remains dry even in demanding conditions.
- Sapphire crystal: We used double anti-reflective coating so you can always see the time, regardless of the angle of incident light.
Limited collector's edition
We create exceptional watches, which is why Moonfish in this configuration is limited.
- Unique case back: The model name subtly “floats” among the stars, and you’ll find your watch’s unique number on the bezel.
- Exclusivity: We have produced only 150 pieces of this colorway.
Watches that turn ordinary moments into extraordinary experiences, combining elegance with a unique design.
