Just curious, what are your EDC setups looking like these days? My CS is about the only thing that stays constant. Trying out this American made Kershaw Launch 20 to see if it makes the rotation. Just getting into the American made knives scene here so would love to see some of them.
Just got my final watch of my 3 piece Tudor collection, the BB58 in blue. Was looking for a black dial, a blue dial, and a beater or daily watch.
A dress watch on jubilee would’ve made this more well rounded (or the opaline dial BB Pro) but I don’t dress up often and I tend to like darker dials.
What’re your Tudor collections looking like? Obviously mine leans towards dive watches, but I do love the BB Pro on rubber since it’s so versatile. I also think I could wear the Pelagos or BB58 with a suit no problem.
That’ll do it for me for a while - even though I know everyone says that.
With a side of arm hair. I get a new appreciation for this piece every time I put it on. My Tudors see more wrist time, but this one is still straight class.
Just bought this Railmaster off the watch exchange and couldn’t help but wonder: Those of you that own a Railmaster of any generation, what watch category does it fit into for you? Everyday watch? Dress watch? Casual watch?
It seems a bit in between for me, which I like. I have a Tudor BB pro that I daily and a Pelagos 39 that I throw in the mix as well. This one has a much simpler aesthetic compared to those two and is extremely comfortable on the wrist
I have a Forstner President bracelet coming in the mail to dress it up a smidge and I think that’ll be the real tell of where it’ll sit in my collection.
Mailbox up top messes up the aesthetics but it’s a solid optic that I already had 😂
I feel like this is a good thread for my likings
Just got my new daily driver in yesterday. It missed my beach trip but made it in time to help cleanup.
Still in the honeymoon phase, obviously, but I love how robust this timepiece is. Feels so solid on the wrist due to the weight and thiiickness… but I kind of like that. It’ll be taking some wrist time from my Pelagos which will always have a spot in my watch box.
This feels like a watch I can enjoy for years and beat the hell out of. Anyone daily a BB pro and throw some different straps on it? Would love to see different pics
My options include the likes of Tudor and Longines, but I find myself grabbing my Citizen Promaster for beating up on the beach.
Between fishing and catching mostly horseshoe crabs, to building sandcastles with the nieces - you can’t go wrong with an affordable watch.
I know all divers are built for the water, but I can’t help but save the expensive ones for other day to day activities like desk diving.
Anyone else do this? It’s like buying a new pair of shoes and keeping your old pair for times that you know they’re gonna get destroyed.
My little dive watch collection catches my eye on my desk in my home office all the time - which one are you rocking with over the rest? And why is it the P39 😂
Bought this watch to resell but I threw a sailcloth strap on it and don’t think I can let it go. This ever happen to anyone?
It’s such a different watch than I’m usually drawn to, but it’s still class!
Any Black Bay Ceramic owners out there? Do you guys wear it more on the strap with deployment clasp or the nato?
Bought this piece to sell to someone I know, but it wears pretty damn well for its size. Definitely a little more like wearing a manhole cover on the wrist compared to my Pelagos 39 😂
There’s just something about it that works though. It’s chunky, the bezel is basically unusable, and yet it’s a work of art.

Any watch guys in here? If so what do you EDC when it comes to your watch and staccato? This has been my recent combo which I think pair nicely
Just wanted to say thank you to all that commented on my post last week about whether I should get the BB or Pelagos.
I needed that extra little insight to pick since they seemed to be very similar watches but in reality have different roles.
As a construction PM, this thing suits me and my day to day role nicely and I can’t stop looking at it.
The titanium bracelet is great but just wondering, do any of you wear a Pelagos on the factory rubber strap?
Little hairy arm joke there…
Anyways, I recently went to my local AD to look into a black diver that I can wear everyday. A couple months ago I bought the new Longines Hydroconquest in blue (since I have the old model in black) and now I’m looking to replace that old HC with a Tudor.
I tried on both the black bay and pelagos. I’ve seen a couple threads discussing one versus the other and watched some YouTube videos as well, so sorry if I’m beating a dead horse here, but I want your opinion as actual Tudor owners. Is it safe to say that I should go the pelagos route since I’m looking for a durable every day watch?
Little backstory, I’m a Project Manager for a construction company and my days vary from being on jobsites to sitting at a desk. I’m looking to offload some watches and invest in a quality everyday watch that can take somewhat of a beating but also catch my eye every time I look down at my wrist.
I’m about 75% sure the pelagos is the right option for me, but would love to hear any feedback.
On the left is what started my Longines journey and on the right is my most recent purchase.
Gotta say, I love them both! Micro-adjustment is a game changer on the new HC bracelet though.
I know, I know, you’ve seen it 1000 times… but this is your sign to order that hydroconquest you’ve been eyeing up. Took about 5 days since the day I ordered it before the weekend. I almost got the 42mm (3rd pic) just because it was in stock at my local AD but I’m glad I held out for the 39mm restock. That blue just dances in the different lighting!
Cheers gents, to a good day!

Just a heads up, 39mm blue HC just went live. I’ve been hawking it for days and this morning was a no go but this afternoon seems like they just updated stock. See you guys soon!
