Inspired by the oldest spring-fed swimming pool in Texas (1936), Deep Eddy pool is as much a staple in an Austin summer as sunshine and heat. What was originally an area along the Colorado River where locals would cool off in the natural spring area, it was transformed into an actual swimming pool, while still maintaining its original sprig-fed source. Legend has it, there was a rather large bolder near the swimming area and as water flowed by, it created a small eddy. The case back engraving is our rendition of how that may have looked.

The two dial colors signify the aquamarine color of the pool, and the earthy brown grasses that surround the area.


The two colorways are Lagoon or Dune, along with the option of date or no-date.

As much as I love a date function, that teal no-date is fire. Also, the dune color is really unique.
I wish that watch were 38mm?
