WHAT SEALED THE DEAL: On Chris’s Tudor Black Bay Bronze
Every life is worth living, so why not show off your patina? That’s exactly what I imagine went through Chris’s head when he first lay eyes on Tudor‘s Black Bay Bronze.

In my eyes there’s no better backdrop than the French Riviera to launch a luxury dive watch. And it seems Ulysse Nardin think so too, unveiling four new iterations of their Diver Chronometer amongst the glamour and affluence at this year’s Monaco Yacht Show.

MY MONTH WITH: The Tudor Black Bay GMT
When the Tudor Black Bay GMT debuted this year at Basel it would’ve been easy to describe it as being overshadowed by the much-hyped Rolex GMT that was also showcased. But it’s not that simple. The Tudor is a hit in its own right, and I knew I had to have one. I had to … ContinuedThe post MY MONTH WITH: The Tudor Black Bay GMT appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

HANDS-ON: Tantalising Tantalum - the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Limited Edition
Tantalum, what’s that, I hear you say. Well, allow me to explain. Tantalum is a highly corrosion-resistant bluish-grey metal with an extreme hardness and high boiling point. Which are the exact qualities you want in a dive watch, but also qualities that make Tantalum incredibly difficult to work with – and the reason why the … ContinuedThe post HANDS-ON: Tantalising Tantalum – the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M Limited Edition appeared first on Time+Tide Watches.

Timex x Greats Bayman Dive Watch
One of the first things people might notice about this watch is its size and sand-blasted case. At 43mm, it's pushing the limits for me personally but for something as casual and carefree as the Bayman, I think the size works together with the overall vibe.
