So my friend had the black dial.

And I thought it wore very well. I personally already own a 36mm explorer and a seadweller. For me that made it too similar. I have a thing where I say “ if I go to my watch box, and watch x is sitting next to watch y will I ever put on watch y?” If the answer is no, I pass.

But then they made a blue dial:

Dial:
Wonderful matte tone crisp fonts. The white gold goes well with the silver minute track and the silver in the bezel. The bezel feels solid, not as smooth as my seadweller, but still solid.


Bracelet:
The braclet fits nice. I’d say like any modern rolex but it does not have glidelock. I use the glidelock feature of my SD and the Tudor does not have it. I have a 16.5cm wrist. I can pull off 41mm barely but 40-36 is my sweet spot. This fits great.

For the money you get a solid movement and a decent bracelet. My glidelock bracelet is superior, but that is also a more expensive watch. 70 hr power reserve and silicone hairspring for some anti magnetic fun.

If you want a reasonable blue dial steel sports watch. This is a great option in my humble opinion.

I’m only allowed 2 watches a year and I’ve got 5 due. 🙈🙈🙈🙈 M.

And I promised myself it would be strictly a one in one out policy.
