The namesake of the BAIKAL watch series is the russian Lake Baikal:
The Baikal is the most beautiful and deepest lake in the world (1637 m) and contains a fifth of the total freshwater reserves. More than 300 Siberian rivers have their destination in the Baikal lake! He is given an age of about 30 million years. Its flora and fauna is unique in the world. It is especially attractive for tourists and photographers in winter. Like a fairytale magic: the mirror-like shining ice with the light blue shimmering snow...
