Introducing The Torsk-Diver Professional Collection
The Torsk-Diver Professional is the newest Diver in the Tsao Baltimore collection and the long awaited followup to the original Torsk-Diver that launched in 2019. Some enhancements include a more refined design, blue BGW9 Grade A lume, textured sunburst dial, and our Maryland assembled automatic movement, the MD-1.
The Torsk-Diver Professional is named after the USS Torsk submarine, aka SS-423. The USS Torsk was one of ten Tench-class submarines to see service during World War II and happened to sink the last enemy ship in 1945. It has since been decommissioned and is currently being used as a museum ship, managed by the Historic Ships in Baltimore.

I’ve long been a fan of Tsao Baltimore watches. I’m a native of Maryland, so the Baltimore-based brand had a special appeal, doubly so as my mother is from the city. But demographic affinity only gets one so far, and a watch has to actually be attractive to be worth my (or anyone’s) time. Tsao Baltimore started really hitting its stride with the Legacy collection, an angular line of watches that offered GMT options in addition to a slew of colorways, bronze cases (and bracelets), and mother-of-pearl dial options. The new Tsao Baltimore Torsk-Diver Professional updates the original Torsk-Diver and keeps the brand’s streak alive, with seven colorways available in either bronze or steel.
Filled with texture and color and plenty wearable, the Torsk-Diver Professional is a step up from the chunkier original Torsk Diver. The wide array of colors and two options of case materials should ensure that those who are interested will be able to find a model they like. The Tsao Baltimore Torsk-Diver Professional is priced at $899 USD in both steel and bronze, with each case limited to 423 pieces. For a limited time, all models are available for $800 USD.
