Hi A pair of contrasting watches on the theme of tough. Firstly my Seiko diver - what most people would consider a tough watch. The left field choice Yes a Futurematic - probably thought of this as still enjoying it on return from spa. Not what most would...
Who else can say their Rolex is space ready and reliable?? One does need robustness, even in 0 gravity, πππ True tough gem right there Dear Ed. Tough Watches!!!!
Vickers hardness rating of 2400Hv and water resistant to 2000m... the titanium alloy was so hard iWC spent more producing these than they charged... ...
Water resistant (to 25% deeper than what is quoted/referenced). Saltwater resistant. Temperature resistant (negative 20 to 60 Celsius). Scratch resistant (2200Hv). I call it βZe Germanβ ...
never fail to surprise me with their toughness and character. This old boy spent a couple of decades going up and down the Karakoram, the Pamirs, the Himalaya and the Hindu Kush and never even asked for a service. And I really enjoyed its company then and...
It doesnβt came to my mind another material item that can stand beside you almost youβre entire life and still ticking,maybe thatβs the reason we love and appreciate them so much
While I am in no doubt that is one tough watch, it is just so damn nice that I would not want to be tough on it, and that damn articulated rubber bracelet! Damn lovely, and tough. Tough Watches!!!!
Perfect tough piece for travels, especially involving water... SD Harbor... Here wristed, rock climbing with my daughter in San Luis Obispo earlier this year. Last year fishing in ID HAGWE All, Cheers, Tim ...
The Rolex has been with me for 52 years now, since it was new. The crystal has been replaced numerous times, and the bracelet as well. It has survived everything I can hit it with. The movement has never failed. Rado #1 has been around for 22 years. It's ...
Re Rolex - 52 years!! Wow wow wow, some people on this forum are not even that age, a true testament to a tough watch. Rado # 1 - I know of them for their ceramics, when you say βscratch proof,β my guess is that this watch is ceramic. Glad to see one not ...
Ok, tough watch. For the last 5+ years, this has been my daily. It has been on every trip Iβve taken, many far away places, many many time zones away. And some closer. Itβs always in the bag. Itβs been in oceans, lakes and rivers. Itβs gone up mountains s...
I remember having them as a navigation device. However, to go with you to many continents, bodies of waters, and even competitions, among other things? If that doesnβt define βtough,β well, then, maybe I donβt speaka de English Tough Watches!!!!
The GS at least can handle the cold, that says itβs maybe more than perception tough, π. Ahh the coveted Hublot ceramic bezel, I saw a series of pictures where a key was scratched on the bezel and then the key metal shavings were wiped off, thatβs a serio...
... tough enough to accompany their owner to climb mountains, dive in the sea, exploring deserts or jungles or practicing the most demanding activities or sports. Here a few examples below. Thank you for your hosting this week end dear Ted! And thanks for...
Ahh another coveted Navy Seals, such a missed line, such a rare tough watch!! Love the diff straps you have for it. The Explorer needs no introduction for being tough, you can take that thing anywhere.π That IWC looks like itβs ready for a cross country s...
It defines exploration and is certainly the watch for a gentleman on a tough mission. Your bronze Panerai with the blue disk is one of my favourites. Kind regards The Captain
Well.. All first three from my JLC stables: - Not really tough and rough, but I would say with enough sportive character. Amvox 1 Aston Martin Master Compressor Memovox Amvox 2 Chrono IMHO.. Nice little JLC sportive threesome collage. Hope you like it a b...
Both Amvoxs can always be made tough by the Maison! If anything happens to them, thatβs true beauty of JLC, they can work on any movement they made!! That Master Compressor Memovox is not only tough, it will remind you its tough, with a nice alarm, during...
Hi Ted and friends ! In tough times we need tough watches ... Tough enough for commanding a nuclear sub ... Tough enough for special missions ... Tough enough for the North Pole... Tough enough for Exploration .... Tough enough for a Harrier Pilot ... Tou...
Quite the exposition of tough horology there. The Lemania is def tough enough to withstand an attack from a sub. The Seiko looks darn ready for a rain forest mission, with machete in hand, watch out for those wild animals.. That PAM and the snow was freez...
I know it is a tough watch and all, but it is, damn - too good looking!!! Rolex reliability and robustness without the negative notoriety. And it can handle a βreefβ or two? Splendid Sire! Tough Watches!!!!!
Just as long as no side knock against the scuba tanks and gotta be careful when diving in big groups cuz some divers just like to crowd and throw their gear around. I compliment the mokaran with my heart. Have a great week Ted.
Actually I got into diving because I read about the Submariner and was seduced by the allure of James Bond diving with it. Now, the submariner is no longer as toolish as it once was, becoming more blingy with the ceramic bezel and the beefed up case. The ...
... and agree with you about your thoughts about its present ceramic rendition as a divers instrument. Computers have replaced them as much practical and complete instruments and the use of ceramic and bigger cases make them more suitable for desk divers ...
Submitted for your approval: Among the watches with long and storied histories of adventure and daring above and beneath the waves, the Seiko divers, especially the 6105 through SLA033 Turtles have been there and done that. βA Listβ actors have worn them ...
The one with the leather strap that goes in the water and everywhere else, that thing is awesome!! Tough and durable!! That carbon one looks like itβs made of race car parts, going at high speeds, has to be tough, even at high speeds! Tough Watches!!!!
that bleeds acid and has two sets of jaws! (Images from Aliens caught by the website the Nerdist). My version of the watch, the SCED041, is not the same dial colors as the original, but still just as tough. Quartz movement, 100m of water resistance; this ...
You brought high-end tough watches, thatβs gutsy, ππ. Well RMs are seen worn on athletes during βplayβ , constantly, and can stand up to that no problem. Now the Patek, I remember reading about this one, super over engineered.... I love that. May be high ...
