Hot Take: Scratches absolutely do not give watches character. Unlike a patina'd dial and/or lume, scratches on a crystal or a dinged up case simply make the watch look objectively worse. Thoughts?
Yep! Lefty here! I always found it funny how on my wrist, wearing it lefty feels natural, but when I see other wearing it lefty-styled it looks strange 😂
Mixed feelings about the new opaline gmt. On the one hand it’s really cool how it is/may be a nod to the rare Rolex gmt master 6542 white dial. On the other hand, I find the hour markers blend too much into the dial. Tudor should have made darker surrounds around the lume plots.
To be honest, I think the fauxtina lume plots on the black bay pro would look phenomenal on the opaline dial!!!!!!

Take a look at King Seiko from the early 70s. Very well priced and nice, clean designs. Definitely not a typical watch. I have a reference number 5626-7111 from 1973-4, and non watch people have commented on it due its unique, angled case shape and the way it catches the light.
