Owner Review: Tudor Heritage Black Bay Bronze
Bronze Watches. Let’s get this out of the way…right away. Bronze is a material that people SHOULD make watches from!! Bronze watches SHOULD NOT be a fad or something that fades away with time. Why, you ask? Bronze is the world’s first metal alloy. Early history is full of man using this important metal to…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Blue 58 – One You Can Marry
Winner of a 2020 GPHG award and perhaps more impressively, the Fifth Wrist Diver of the Year at the 2020 Wristies Awards, the Tudor Black Bay Blue 58 is one of the most talked about watches to come out of 2020. But are we all just falling victim to Insta-hype? As 2020 drew to a…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay 58 79030N
You want to be Connery’s Bond and wear a Rolex 6538 “big crown” while lusting over its warm gilt dial with elegantly proportioned case and sharp deep chamfers… but need something robust and modern that doesn’t cost you a house deposit.. meet the modern 114060 Ceramic Rolex Submariner, but wait..it’s way too modern and clinical..…

Owner Review: Tudor Harrods Black Bay – Little brother to the Kermit
Behold the Tudor Harrods Black Bay – a limited/special edition of the Black Bay exclusive available from Harrods London. A dive watch with the same in-house movement as its other regular production brothers. At this price point, it’s hard to beat with so much going for it – depth rating of 200m, power reserve of…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay 36 – The “Less is More” watch
I still remember the first time I went to the Rolex and Tudor boutique looking for the Tudor Black Bay 36. The sales professional, who I didn’t end up getting it from by the way, told me that the 36mm size was considered by modern standards a women’s watch. Boy, I am so glad that…

Owner Review: Tudor Pelagos Blue Dial 25600tb
Being the watch idiot savant that I am, I use an app (“On My Wrist” should anyone be interested!) to record the regularity with which I wear each of my watches in my increasingly inappropriately excessive collection. The app tells me this morning that my Tudor Pelagos Blue Dial 25600tb has today become my equal most…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Bronze Heritage
Tudor unveiled the Heritage Black Bay Bronze at Baselworld 2016. I can remember seeing the press coverage on various watch websites and Instagram, the watch seemed to be generally well received. Personally, it wasn’t instant love for me, but I was intrigued and I wanted to learn more. Beyond knowing that Tudor was the sister…

Owner Review: Vintage Tudor Ranger 7996
Despite being an ETA-based, Rolex parts bin special, I absolutely adore vintage Tudors watches. From a business perspective, I can’t exactly argue with Tudor for their steps to separate themselves from their bigger and more famous brother Rolex. However, I feel that most of their newer offerings sometimes lack the warmth and charm of their…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Blue 79220B
Tudor took the watch world by storm when it reintroduced itself with the highly anticipated Heritage Collection in the early 2010s. Among all the models, the Black Bay heritage line played the most crucial role in reasserting the Tudor brand back to “relevancy.” I immediately fell in love with the Black Bay Red reference 7922R…
