By TLex INTRODUCING the new t.a.c.t.i.c.o TC2 from CREPAS of Malaga, Southern Spain. A watch company who are not only huge dive watch passionates but are also firmly establishing themselves as one of the new leading boutique brands to watch out for.
t.a.c.t.i.c.o is their Military Division, and the TC2 as its name suggests is their second model. Their first model, the TC1 (as have all CREPAS models) was completely sold out - just weeks after its launch, however it was criticized by some for being too derivative.
This could not be said of the TC2, which while inspired by vintage military dive watches of the past, borrows very little if anything at all from any specific models that I know of. Its dial in particular, which recalls divers of the 60s and 70s with its bold red lines and unique handset is already a success for my mind.
As you can see the watch is already in the prototype stage and T•a•c•t•i•c•o / CREPAS have already opened pre-orders. Please see below for a list of specifications, features and pricing. All OceanicTime readers are entitled to an 80euro discount, please mention this when ordering.
