Same here. It will be the first watch I have bought a second time after regret from selling it once.

For those with an FT subscription there is an opinion piece about this watch with analysis from a business/marketing perspective.

Great share. Thanks.
If you just need to quickly look at the date you might bring your wrist up but have your sleeve still partially cover the dial. If you are wearing this on your right wrist you can still peek at the...
My thoughts...
The type of 'young' mainstream customer who might have bought a Speedmaster 10 years ago may have been in their mid-20s to 30s, on a good job and buying their first 'good' watch....
The steel 36mm Explorer is the return of the perfect one watch as far as I'm concerned.
I don't work in design but I can imagine that keeping an existing reference the same in a refresh is, far...
It makes sense if they are fleshing out a product family with the focus on the wear and look of each offering rather than fitting them into arbitrary sizes to make them appear orderly to an Internet...
I think I'd be willing to pay the difference if the grade of movement was chronometer as opposed to what I presume is standard or elabore in the 300T. Different materials for the rubies, springs and...
The strap fits fine. I have 3 strap holes to spare. To be honest with watches marketed for men I find the straps are often very long and I need to use the very first or second strap hole. With 6.5...
I've already declared my conflicts of interest - I'm a proper fanboy. But care to describe what happened?
A few months ago I bought a brand new 30mm Longines automatic and it's a revelation. I have been wearing it daily ever since. It's marketed as a woman's watch but it fits my 6.5 inch wrist so well in...
My own experience of Nomos is that they will do this sort of thing because they are serious about excellent customer service. Before COVID they made me a special order of a model with a solid...
The number of these watches in existence around the world has not changed. The appearance or innards of this watch has not changed. The knowledge of its existence has not changed. Anybody who knows...
Thanks for bringing it to the attention of those outside of the Asian market. Judging by some of the comments here, looks like Tudor's marketing department have got it spot on in not releasing it in...
I find the sobriety of the watch actually appeals to me. I think its po-faced look makes it a good formal desk diver for work and, let's face it, this is what many potential customers in the market...
This is surely taking the price of everything but the value of nothing. As it happens, I don't know Seiko's per unit cost and would not like to guess. Seiko and Timefactors are two completely...
So what if a part of the movement not directly engaged in the gear train is wearing away, such as part of the keyless work or automatic winding? Timekeeping may not be affected for a long time, if at...
The cost of the service is surely related to the time needed to complete the job, not the relative expense of the movement in question. It is still an automatic movement with a date complication and...
The technical information document on their website (link here) states that 3 bar is suitable for "rain, hand-washing" which is standard for the industry. I don't think this is disowning any water...
This Hodinkee article debunks that thought by referencing someone who has actually done the maths. Jack Forster's conclusion was:
"(a) 100 meters is more than enough; (b) your watch may be a lot...
I bought one of these when they first came out and sold it on this year. I thought it was a very handsome looking watch with the black dial. The overall visual design seemed so well considered as...
A timekeeper's performance is about the consistency as much as the observed daily deviation from a time standard. If your watch runs -4 a day but does so every day as you wear it, that suggests...
The hi-beat 80-hour power reserve(!) watch has an entirely new movement with a novel escapement! Incredible prowess from Seiko.
COSC is a promise that the movement was tested to a certain specification before encasement in a watch. The implication, but not necessarily guarantee, is that the final product will run at these...
