Anyone keen on watches?

I wouldn't wear anything on my person that had been promoted by David Beckham!

Surely that's almost everything isn't it?

If you mean tattoos, trainers or a sarong, then yes.

I wasn't being too serious about Tudor watches: I'm just surprised that with his wealth he feels the need to promote anything, and could easily afford to buy an expensive Rolex.

He probably spends a million a year just on personal security. Not cheap being mega rich and famous. Nutters and kidnappers all around.

When I was a kid in the early 80’s I always thought Rotary watches were really posh and expensive. I never owned a Rotary, a divers watch or a chronograph until a few months ago and got all 3 in one!

Was going to be my “daily d(r)iver” but the strap annoys me as it keeps coming out of the bits that are supposed to hold the spare but at the end so I haven’t worn it that much. Might look at a different strap, then again might go in the cull whenever that happens.

Basically same company.

Founded by the same person and they can be regarded as sister companies, catering for different client bases.

Tudor use Rolex designed movements but are manufactured by outside Swiss companies.

Sorry Roy, had to be a copycat on this one!

A real Aqua Terra would be on my wish list along with the BB58 but in the meantime this is a very nice homage.

The sibling model has actually evolved into a strategic dual brand partnership.

Tudor founded their own movement manufacturer in 2015.

Citizen “Mumbai Special” - actually quite like it, not sure I would trust it down to 150m though!
