Watches - another OCD problem
-
I'm glad the Black Bay won. I've had mine for about six months and love the thing. In about a week I'm going to pop it on the fabric strap it came with while we are on vacation.

It is nice to see Tudor come from out of the shadow of the parent company. The new designs are very nice and work well as pieces in their own right. They suffered for years from the image of being the "poor mans Rolex"…
...With the new designs it looks like Tudor is fashioning it's own identity.
I agree with you on Tudor's perception issue and the direction of their new designs, and I hope you're right about them forging a new identity. Like I said, I like all of their new models; I'd like to see more good things from them.

No Giles, The Tudors are in the past, your hot tub time machine is malfunctioning again!

Just been watching the Sotherby's Red Auction. I had half an eye on a customised Jaeger LeCoultre Memovox with a red dial.
But it got up to $200K, and that was a bit too rich for me! :o
I saw the watch when it was on display at Sotherby's in London, and it was a nice looking piece. Had it gone for the estimate ($10K to $15K), it would have been a good buy.

I've tired of watches that only exist in, and can only document the passage of time in, this dimension, so for my next timepiece I'm looking for something with little more flexibility…

I have that. I bought it in 2026.

I'm just happy we make it to '26!

^ Lovely, I'm a big fan of the Bauhaus-inspired design.

Pink Mille Miglia spotted in Watches of Switzerland yesterday. I'm not sure if it's completely tasteless or rather cool.
And a Doctor Who themed diving watch by the Orange Watch Company. More at aBlogToWatch.

I don't see why it can't be both.

Just got back from Nassau, what a watch lovers Mecca. Almost bought another Tudor but my ever present and realistic wife talked me down.

So it seems that most discounts hover around 10-20% depending on the brand plus the benefit of no tax/duty. The big difference is the number of brands that are unavailable to try on at home. One gent there was letting me try on a $28,000 Piaget Antiplano. No interest financing lol!
