Say ‘hello’ to the Tudor Black Bay 36 – a versatile piece that flies under the radar! It comes in at 36mm, which to me is a perfect size. I know there are those that say 36mm is too small but for me, this wears perfectly, and is so proportionate. I suppose Rolex agrees with…

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.

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…

Exclusively available at Bucherer outlets, it bears several Bucherer related signatures: 1. Bucherer blue…

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…
