The camo is a lot more subtle and almost similar to a sunburst dial in appearance and execution. Packaging is really nice for a Seiko 5 too. Very happy with this piece.

I’m debating on a new watch I’m torn between these two watches. What do you think will be more versatile? I want to wear something everyday to the office and to a nice black tie event.

i feel like tudor is more versatile

its smaller, thinner and with the right leather strap, it can look dressy and the gilt dial kind of helps in that regard, its very vintagey

the omega can really only look dressy if you can pull off saying “bond… james bond” then beat up some terrorist in a tux otherwise its a robust, shiny sports watch and the escape valve and clunky bracelet isnt helping
 
crazy that a watch that retails $30k is reselling for 12x and the reaction is "ouch"



i mean i get it, it sucks if you're one of the sucka who bought at $700k, or even $500k but you aint gon get much sympathy from me

Thank you. What are some good websites that have a good selection of leather straps for the Tudor?
 
the tudor black bay 58 uses a 20mm lug width which is pretty common

delugs and veblenist has a good selection and can even custom make something on mid to high price level

then there are places like strapsco where straps can start at $20 then have a 20% off sale and always has a buy 2 get one free

really up to you but you do get what you pay for

this is a strapsco basic vintagey strap and im happy with it but i also like to play around with other straps so it doesnt get worn out
