Owner Review: Tudor Submariner 79190 – Vintage meets modern

I get it. You’re looking for a vintage dive watch. They’re so hot right now. A transitional matte dial Submariner, that’d be sweet. You’ll probably find yourself looking at 1680s, maybe 16800s. Naturally, they look awesome. Then you look at the price. What if I told you that you could get all of that vintage…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Dark – Come to the dark side

I would be lying if I said I was a long-time fan of the Tudor Black Bay Dark. In fact, I am not usually a fan of blacked out watches. So, it came as a surprise when I first laid my eyes on the watch in the flesh. Then holding it in my hands confirms…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Bronze Bucherer Blue

The Tudor Black Bay Bronze Bucherer Blue (more affectionately known as the Tudor 5B) was first released in 2018. As I had never owned a bronze watch, it was interesting to see Bucherer launch this model to commemorate its 130 anniversary. Exclusively available at Bucherer outlets, it bears several Bucherer related signatures: 1. Bucherer blue…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay Harrods Edition

Although blue is my favorite color, I’ve always loved green watches. I owned the Rolex Submariner Hulk for a couple of years before selling it off, in favor of the 50th anniversary Submariner, aka the Kermit. So when the Tudor Black Bay Harrods edition was launched last year in late 2017, I was drooling all…

Owner Review: Tudor Submariner 75090 – Neo Vintage

In my three watch collection, a neo vintage Submariner is my sport/active watch. I don’t like the term beater; to me it implies being disposable. I see my Tudor Submariner more as being ultra durable. I don’t have to worry about it at all. In fact, the scuffs, scratches and fading make it look better.…

Owner Review: Tudor Black Bay 36 – Based on a True Story

Scene 1: December 31, six hours before the new year arrives. Six hours to celebrate with friends — at least, those who are able to stay awake (we’re not as young as we once were). We’re going to be late — my fault, as usual. Where did I put that damn jacket? Ah, there it…
