Nikhil Deshpande

Nikhil Deshpande began exploring analog watches after years of wearing wearables like Garmin, Fitbit, and Apple Watch due to a passion for running. Through a friend’s recommendation, he discovered Bangalore Watch Company™ and was immediately captivated by the storytelling and craftsmanship behind the collection. They now own two watches: Mach 1 Admiral, a limited-edition watch made partly from steel from the decommissioned INS Vikrant, and the Apogee Manzinus II, featuring a 4.5-billion-year-old meteorite disc at its center. Hear his journey with Bangalore Watch Company™ and why these watches hold a special place in his collection.
