It is exactly six more days before 2016 officially comes to an end. Over the last 11 months, we have seen many novelties, with the majority coming from either Salon International De La Haute Horlogerie (SIHH) or Baselworld.…
Introduced just last month, the Tudor Pelagos LHD was a surprise, despite the expectant rumours in the weeks before its launch. The Pelagos LHD – that’s short for “Left Hand Drive” – is essentially a souped-up Pelagos, the 500m titanium dive watch that’s the modern counterpart to the retro Black Bay. Notably, the Pelagos LHD dials back the contemporary styling, replacing […]

I must admit that, when the Tudor Heritage Black Bay 36 Ref. 79500 was introduced at Baselworld 2016, I was quite indifferent towards it. My mind was tuned towards and only in favor of all the other Black Bay’s, the black, the total black and the bronze. These I said to myself were proper watches, bold, and greatly executed. The 36mm was overall a watch I could not understand. However, when I finally strap it on my wrist for some days, in order to write this review, I started to realize that it probably conformed with that famous motto from the great F. A. Porsche: “A formally harmonious product needs no decoration, it should be elevated through pure form.” So I started to completely change my attitude towards it. This watch has something special and we will find out in our review of the Black Bay 36.

We were at the global launch event (Singapore edition) when at exactly 8pm local time, news of the new Tudor LHD Pelagos was released. We released some of the first live photographs on our instagram (@deployant) and our Facebook page. We also published a first reactions piece, based on the Press Release late in the evening. We now replace that…
Tudor Pelagos LHD Yesterday, Tudor invited us for a lunch in Amsterdam. We understood that it had to do with a new introduction, but had no clue about what to expect. Exactly at 1pm, Tudor unveiled their latest, the Tudor Pelagos LHD. LHD stands for Left Hand Drive, for left-handed divers, meaning that the winding […]
When Tudor first launched teasers for the November 17th launch, little did we know they were about to unveil the Tudor Pelagos LHD or Left Hand Drive “Destro” Titanium Diver. In fact, mea culpa, I was lulled into expectations of a Tudor Diver’s watch following in the same footsteps as the Tudor Bronze –…
