I was lucky enough to see a two-tone watch so 80 on his wrist for a long time.
The problem with big brands is to see how much they tense up when it comes to innovating, so convinced that the public will not follow this time. So we change the color of the dial blah blah blah...
so it is sometimes useful to go back to the past.
this watch is cool, funky and so 80 (and not FFF: futile showing off...)

Vintage, tribute to my father

Life is like a box of chocolates.
one day someone gives me a cardboard box with this watch without a strap.
a quick check-up from my watchmaker and a purchase of tropics from the repairers and a new life is offered to this small automatic object that only asks to rest on a wrist again.

Life is like a box of chocolates

It was again on JC's advice that the idea came to me to register on a Kick starter made by a watch creator that is Watch angel.
The collaboration with Cedric Bellon was unexpected.
The theme of a watch with a very pure design with recycled materials and tools speaks to me. In addition, sourcing Soprod movements with GMT complication lit the fuse.
Finally, this sandwich dial is magnificent.

When: part.X of the path (reminder part.0: it was an imitation of Swatch camouflage model)

How: I watched the OP,DD and BB comparison on the Dialicious channel

Emotion: it accompanies me without skewering on the blows at work. I love knowing that it is a sellita, rather than a so-called "in House" movement like the MT of Kenissi shared. here it is clear I bought a tractor.

The next one: ?


I wouldn't have an OP

When: part.5 of the path (reminder part.0: it was an imitation of Swatch camouflage model)
in December 2022. I made a lot of phone calls.

How: thanks to a certain Mrs. Vallée from the Dubail boutique Place Vendome who found my email and my fairly specific request.

Emotion: a sublime watch but once again not assumed. the dial too thing, the bracelet not the size. but that was without counting on the top after-sales service of GP: "sir, we have never found the perfect fit for each of our customers". and after sending the 2 additional links. the combination was perfect and the bracelet adjusted.
the rest of the watch was crazy. finesse beauty but that's for later

The next one: to the I don't know anything

how= I looked at my buddy JC from moonwatch and I had offered a Concordia auto this time to my brother-in-law

emotion = we're not going to brag, it's a watch that is great for its use. It has a great quartz sweep second movement

next One= maybe a grail

This is my friend JC

When: part.4 of the path (reminder part.0: it was an imitation of Swatch camouflage model)

How: I started watching You Tube and I came across an Original program, the Dialicious channel

Emotion: it seduced me because it is not thick, surprising because it is very big but its design makes that smaller (Reduce) we wear more a speed.

The next one: a MKII


Xa's fault... Watchout

When: part.2 of the path (reminder part.0: it was an imitation of Swatch camouflage model)
so it was when I was an intern and I was phophating in the shadows while dreaming of an automatic watch

How: an auction with an alarm at 2:18 to bid at 715 euros

Emotion: perfect diameter but not the foot to wear despite all the changes of bracelet

How; a head of clinic, FAM, a crazy blog on "my Rolex Sub 14060M 2 lines.

Emotion: watch not assumed the first 3 months by its price (3200 euros) so much I did not think that it was reasonable compared to my parents, friends or people in general.
I did not leave it for 10 years.

The next one: an IWC mark XV on the bay

A jewel this case with 38 mm diameter and 11 mm thickness. A very well decorated manufacture caliber with the dead second complication. A blue dial with a cross in the center to perfect the balance. A very modern brown strap for an iconic watch. A gold oscillating weight. A jewel of great watchmaking.

<p dir="ltr">The brand <strong>Tudor</strong>, founded in <strong>1926</strong>, is the fruit of the vision of Hans Wilsdorf, also founder of Rolex. His ambition was to create a watch that would offer the reliability and quality of Rolex, but at a more affordable price. So, from the start, Tudor positions itself as a manufacturer of quality watches at more accessible prices than those of the Rolex brand. This extremely clear DNA allows Tudor to position itself on innovation illustrated by its brand signature: &ldquo;<strong>Born To Dare</strong>&rdquo;.</p>
<h2 dir="ltr">History of the Tudor brand</h2>
<p dir="ltr">From the 1950s, Tudor began to forge its own identity, although still associated with Rolex. In 1954, the brand launched the Oyster Prince Submariner model, affirming its position in diving watches. This watch featured exceptional water resistance, making it particularly popular with professional divers and water sports enthusiasts.</p>
<p dir="ltr">The 1960s and 1970s were marked by the development of partnerships with professional organizations. <strong>Tudor watches have been chosen by the French Navy and the US Navy</strong>, attesting to their robustness and reliability. The launch of the Tudor Prince Oysterdate Chronograph model, more commonly known as the "Big Block", in the 1970s is another important milestone for the brand. It was the first automatic chronograph with a date, a technological feat for its time.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Since it was taken over by Rolex in 1936, Tudor focused until the 1970s on professional models from the Rolex professional collection. The 80s allowed the brand to begin to free itself from it without offering models that would mark history.</p>

<p dir="ltr">2012 is undoubtedly a year. Important in the history of the brand with the launch of the Tudor Heritage Black Bay which will become the spearhead of the brand with a successful identity and variations increasingly popular with watchmaking enthusiasts.</p>
<p dir="ltr">Today, Tudor is recognized as a brand in its own right, producing around 300,000 watches each year, most of which are certified COSC (Official Swiss Chronometer Testing) or <strong>METAS</strong>, an independent Swiss label created by the Federal Institute of Metrology.</p>

<p dir="ltr">The phenomenal success of the BB58 is undoubtedly behind the launch in 2023 of the<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tudor/black_bay_54"> Tudor Black Bay 54</a> also nicknamed "<a href="https://www.dialicious.com/en/tudor/black_bay_54">BB54</a>".</p>

<p dir="ltr">(Updated September 2024)</p>

I just bought this beautiful Tudor Black Bay 36 blue dial. We really feel a move upmarket at Tudor with these new models (both in terms of price and perceived quality). This Black Bay is less of a toolwatch than the previous model but has its charm. The new dial and jubilee bracelet with the T-Fit are superb. A real pleasure to wear every day!

Tudor Black Bay 36

Bought on the occasion of my graduation as my first high-end watch, and chosen to be able to accompany me all my life in all circumstances. I have an active lifestyle (daily cyclist, cycle touring, hiking, many train journeys etc ...) but I am not an extreme explorer, I do not work in a large bank or am not regularly invited to social cocktails, and so this discreet, sporty, resistant, reliable, inexpensive to maintain watch, with vintage inspirations and modern features, is truly the ideal companion for my daily life! Its steel bracelet is ideal for this versatile use, in addition to being of superb quality, and even if I have not yet tried the NATO or leather bracelets seem to suit it wonderfully. I appreciate the fact that it is contained with its 36mm but that it still has a nice presence with its imposing build, I appreciate the winks and the adequacy with the Tudor heritage (the snowflake hands, the smile text, the ETA movement, the case back almost identical to a Rolex etc ...). I also really like its discretion, its simplicity, which does not attract the eye and does not try to tell everyone that I am wearing an expensive watch, but I also appreciate the universe and the heritage of the brand which still today has a strong sporting spirit. In short, this watch is so qualitative and versatile that I have had trouble wearing my other watches for 2 months as the Tudor is the easy choice, and if its weak power reserve can discourage rotation, in truth this watch is intended to be worn every day, it is intended to be a "one-watch collection".

The only watch you need

I bought this superb Black Bay 36 champagne dial version 2023, because it is one of the rare models, in the budget I had two months ago, to match my purchasing criteria: 36mm (over 37, it's already too much for me), thin, comfortable to wear, classy, without extravagance, simple, precise, from a renowned brand.

However... it is a transitional watch: I admit it!

Indeed, my watchmaking grail (and I sincerely believe that once I have acquired it, I will not buy anything else, in my life if not for years), is a Rolex, Datejust, 36mm, fluted bezel, jubilee bracelet, in gold (yellow) and steel, white dial with Roman numerals.
It's this classy watch above all, of an ideal size, mythical, that of Patrick Bateman / Christian Bale in American Psycho (or rather that which resembles it, since, in the film, it's a Seiko that he wears, but of this style) - it's this watch that I absolutely want, without a doubt. 
And, in the meantime, I'm wearing this marvel of Tudor. Transitional watch, while waiting for the dream. Not that I'll sell my Tudor. Certainly I'll wear the Rolex exclusively at work, and the Tudor in more "risky" places, in the big city center, on weekends to relax, for example. 

This is the tour de force, in my opinion, of Tudor: to make me dream with an impeccable watch while waiting for the watchmaking Grail. 

And there's nothing shameful about that! Tudor can be proud of this release. 

Ps: thanks Xavier for your video from six months ago "Battle Tudor Black Bay 36 vs Rolex Datejust 36": I did like the guest, I bought mine at Doux.

A magnificent transitional watch: waiting for the Holy Grail!

I have owned this model for two years. Although my collection is growing, it adorns my wrist every day.

I fell under the spell of its simple and refined dial. The symmetry of its indexes that swim in the deep waters of this black lacquered dial is captivating.
From professional meetings to evenings with friends, it blends into my little wrist.

Discreet, simple and effective.
