I was interested in the history of Formex and I was charmed by it.
The Formex Essence Leggera is a light and elegant watch. Its carbon fiber case is topped with a ceramic bezel, a material that is also found on the signed crown. The green dial sports a "teak" pattern with the most beautiful effect. It knows how to remain discreet as well as play with the light to the point of having a syntillant emerald green.
I chose the green leather which suits it perfectly. It comes with two strands to cover the points from 16 to 20 cm and a carbon buckle with the possibility of quick adjustment.
It is a comfortable watch to wear every day.
The movement is a Sellita SW200-1 chronometer-certified (with the dated COSC booklet with the measurements of the movement of your watch).

If you are looking for a sporty, elegant and light watch, the Formex Essence Leggera is an excellent choice.

Sporty and elegant

The Seamaster Diver 300M is a watch that embodies elegance, robustness and precision. Its iconic design made famous by the James Bond license features a wavy ceramic dial reminiscent of ocean waves. The factory ceramic of this Seamaster constantly plays with light. It is a real pleasure to look at it. Its co-axial movement is of formidable precision. This Seamaster is elegant, precise and reliable. Its design with the unscrewable Helium valve at 10 o'clock will not please everyone and yet that is what makes it unique. I am happy to have acquired it 20 years after having had views on the first models of this watch.

Elegant in all circumstances!

Jacques Bianchi became a watchmaker in the 1950s. He learned his trade with watchmakers in the PACA region before settling in Marseille.
His workshop grew in importance and brands such as Rolex and Omega entrusted him with repair contracts.
Jacques Bianchi also rubbed shoulders with renowned divers such as Jacques-Yves Cousteau, Captain Albert Falco and members of COMEX. In the early 1980s, he created the JB200 (Jacques Bianchi) with the same case as the reissue offered on Kickstarter in 2021. The one from the 80s had a date and a mechanical movement.
It was above all this fabulous story that pushed me to order a watch that I can't try on!
You may know this, but I prefer to try on the watches I buy.
I love the very crazy shape of the case with its crown on the left, the polished flange allows you to see the indexes reflected in it. The manufacturing quality had amazed me when I received the bindle which had two pearls, a Jacques Bianchi badge to sew, and a carrying pouch.
For 560 euros, I had a beautiful case with an incredible lume worthy of the ZRC. The movement is a NH35 from Seiko with the disadvantages of the Seiko in terms of precision even if this jb200 is quite well adjusted.
It is a watch that I wear whenever I have to do water activities and it is very pleasant to wear.
A reissue faithful to the Jacques Bianchi workshops. I invite you to follow the Jacques Bianchi workshop on Instagram (instagram account @atelier-bianchi)



A brilliant diver

This is my first analog watch! I bought it in my last year of engineering school and it accompanied me to my first job. It was my daily for about ten years until I bought an Orient Bambino and my partner gave me my Longines Presence in 2010. This Swatch Irony Chrono reference CADMOS YCS409 is robust, elegant with its openwork hands that remind me of the Omega Seamaster Diver 300M, the chronograph hand has a look that reminds me of the Speedmaster.... The worm is in the apple. I like its matte black dial and the whole thing is working 100% for over 23 years. My son has already spotted it in my collection and he plans to get it soon. By the way, this watch is indestructible but who said a Swatch is disposable?

My Swatch Irony Chrono is indestructible!

I dreamed of having a Breitling Navitimer. I chose a new model because I wanted to have this 70-hour power reserve. I had the opportunity thanks to Godechot Pauliet to acquire this model. My choice was oriented towards the Breitling Navitimer B01 in 43 mm. It is equipped with a high-quality mechanical movement with automatic winding, the Breitling Caliber 01, which is entirely developed and manufactured by Breitling. This column chronograph movement is a guarantee of precision and reliability. This reliability is confirmed by a watchmaker that I follow on Instagram. The indexes, the hands with the luminova, the micro grooves in the sub-dials and the meticulousness of the calculation rules are all elements that give this watch a luxurious appearance. I love the B at the end of the red second hand on the chronograph and I am crazy about the black dial which sometimes has electric blue reflections. Note that it does not like water (3 atm) and on the other hand it is precise +1 to +2s per day. This design is more than 70 years old and this watch was a tool used for airline pilots. Beyond that, this watch is the favorite of my loved ones. A masterpiece !!!

A sophisticated navitimer

This ZRC was born from Stéphane Clouzeau's wish to celebrate these 50 years with a collaboration with ZRC of which he is one of the ADs. This watch announced in July 2021 on the ZRC group's Facebook page was reserved by 48 people based on a photo of what it could be. In the end, it is a magnificent Grands Fonds 300 water-resistant to 1000m with a 4mm sapphire crystal and a chimney shape. This watch is unique with its dial featuring a beautiful light blue to abyssal blue gradient, unique red magnum hands on the edges, a second hand with a red tip, its 40.5mm case is microblasted, the unique blue bezel like the flange... it's killer! I am a fan of this watch with a beautiful precision of +3 seconds from the ETA 2824-2 movement developed presnet inside. It is an exceptional Grands Fonds.

ZRC BY STEF

This speedmaster is a dream come true 7 years ago. This chronograph is elegant and sporty at the same time. My omega is equipped with a hesalite glass and the manual mechanical caliber omega 1861. The power reserve is 46 to 48 hours and an accuracy of +3 seconds per day. My pleasure lies in winding the watch. I love to contemplate the dial, the design of the case and the dome of the hesalite glass. The history of the speedmaster and its selection by NASA shows how robust this watch is. It will be passed on to my son.

STRATOSPHERIC!

This is one of my watch grails from the historic Rolex range. The first Rolex Explorer II was launched in 1971 and was designed specifically for speleologists and explorers who spend long periods of time in extreme environments where natural light is limited. The watch was therefore equipped with an additional 24-hour hand, which makes it easy to distinguish day from night. But it is as a real GMT that I have been using it daily since 2021, the date of this Explorer II which reached 70 hours of RDM for the 50th anniversary of the model. Its brushed bezel, its oyster case, its orange GMT hand and the mention Explorer II energize this wonderful white dial. It is both elegant and robust without forgetting magnificent precision. It is certainly my favorite GMT.

The perfect GMT

I was on vacation in Spain and I had the opportunity to try it at an AD. I was immediately impressed by the comfort of wearing this watch and the thickness so criticized was not the steak I expected. I love the concept of a chrono resistant to 20 bars. This makes it a solid watch that fears (almost) nothing. I like this bezel and the two sub-counters inspired by the first chronos of the 70s. The symmetry of the dial is remarkable and the opaline color fascinates me. The precision of the movement is surprising and my watch is particularly very well adjusted. This chrono for the 50th anniversary of the Tudor chrono is a success.

She's clinical!

The ZRC Grands Fonds 300 North adventure was designed for Alban Michon's polar exploration. ZRC carried out a kickstarter in 2017 to appeal for funds and a little over 320 privileged people contributed to this adventure. It was designed and tested by Zrc and Alban in real conditions. I like to go on trips or on vacation with only this watch because it is unique in terms of design and look. It is a very resistant watch with a unique look. It is a technical concentrate in terms of materials because Zrc has a strong experience in material resistance studies. The watch is water-resistant to 300m but validated at 1000m without any worries with its 4 mm sapphire. I love the shape of the case, the crown at 6 o'clock and the impossibility of leaving it open, the noise of the bezel, the exceptional lume, the elaborate ETA 2824-2 caliber (write to zrc to ask for the chosen mechanism on its serial number), the steel bracelet with its ability to be placed on the arm, its comfort when worn, the steel bracelet closing mechanism, the possibility of putting the rubber or the ZRC nato, the beauty of the watch. A unique beauty. Distinguishing feature: a technical diver in the service of the French Navy for many years. Distinctive features: hexagonal case (go France), brand with a crown 👑 


The ZRC North Adventure is unique!

<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">(Updated September 2024)</p>

Passing by Tudor in search of an inaccessible star, this panda looked at me with black eyes for which the illustrious Django would have broken a string or two on his guitar... So I decided to adopt him on the spot because I must admit the call of the Panda had been resonating in me for some time and I could not find the rare pearl. Or else the pearl was too rare and my finances would not have recovered. And then I still want to walk the animal on the main boulevards knowing that I am not armed. In short, we fell into each other's arms - well especially him on my right arm - and all he lacks is the growl! A complication not invented to this day I think...

She was the one who looked at me

Fan of the old Daytona, I discovered it at my jeweler and it was obvious it was made for me the vintage style, the panda and a tool side Watch with 200m of water resistance at an attractive price bravo Tudor from my small collection it is my favorite watch that I can wear for all occasions.

A panda at an attractive price

I have recently owned this bb chrono, I happened to enter a shop that surprisingly had one in stock, this watch is the typical example that reviews and other tests on the internet are not enough, I found it nice but I always heard about its thickness being too important, but once in hand and on the wrist it is another story, so it must be clear it is an automatic chrono so it is not the thinnest watch in the world but it is very contained all the same! I chose the reverse panda I found that the light background made it difficult for me to see, the fake rivets, personally I do not even notice them. I can give a point decatir it is the Lum, which needs a lot of exposure to be effective, it is for example not at the level of that of my seamaster.

A panda with its head upside down

Like many of us, one of my favorite watches is the Rolex Daytona… the price is certainly high but the biggest obstacle remains the extreme difficulty in getting one! One day while browsing the Tudor website, I came across the black bay chrono model…. I fell in love with this model right away! I quickly realized that its resemblance to the Daytona was not for nothing…. 2 models offered, the panda and the reverse panda… After a few months of thinking, I went to AD Tudor to see the model and its availability. I made it short…. waiting list, phone call, it's in the store!!! I finally see it, I try it… first impression, it is massive, heavy, well finished, in short you get your money's worth!!!! I've had it for 8 months now, and I am very satisfied with my purchase…. Some will say that I am happy by default, but no! This Tudor chrono is a truly beautiful watch with high specifications....and it deserves to be purchased...thanks and well done Tudor!!

If you can't have a daytona...

Having truly fallen under the spell of time in 2021, I was looking to acquire my second timepiece from a major watch manufacturer 1 and a half years later. However, after watching many videos of Xavier, after reading an infinite number of articles and specialist magazines, I still couldn't make up my mind... 
One fine day (or was it a night?), I went to a shop well known to the people of Lyon for its second-hand watches to just "look and try" without any definite intention to buy and luck would have it that I found myself next to this beauty in the same place, at the same time. 
From the window, my attention was caught. It must be said that it is imposing with its 41mm case that the 2 push buttons and the imposing flat crown with a rose logo make even more imposing. The watch is "heavy" which goes hand in hand with the impression of solidity that it gives off. Comfortable to wear on the wrist, mesmerizing visual: The black-opal mix is really successful and the absence of a third under-counter alongside the small seconds and the timer avoids weighing down the dial too much. "Oyster" bracelet with classic folding clasp and closure forming the "Tudor Shield". Nice.
The aluminum tachymeter bezel and silver indications are outdated but undeniably make the charm of the watch. The stopwatch is, in 2023, a gadget but remains an essential watchmaking complication! Be careful to screw the buttons back in after use otherwise bye-bye to the water resistance (200 meters)! (We learn this with experience -_-)
COSC certification for remarkable and noted precision as much as the domed sapphire crystal.
The watch is difficult to find in AD which confirms that Tudor has been moving upmarket for a few years and is now only the "little sister of Rolex". #waitinglist. It can therefore be an interesting investment (its value on the grey market tends to be higher than in stores)
On the downsides, the case back is solid and poorly worked. No aesthetic interest. The luminova is not the brightest and fades quickly and the chronograph second hand is not coated with it so that the functionality is of no use at night or in the dark. Noted. Date window at 6 o'clock without a magnifying glass. Too bad.
The whole thing is still very good, however; try it and you'll love it! Nb: its sporty look suits all types of styles or outfits but its size requires a certain wrist size.
