We live in a time when rugged-looking tool watches regularly get paired with formal wear, but then again so do wrinkled work boots, gnarly beards, and worn denim—all of which were once blasphemy at the office or cocktail bar. The Tudor 1926 harkens back to that era when, even if you’d just swum the English Channel or scaled The Matterhorn, you shaved and tuxed up for the evening’s affairs. Meanwhile, your wristwatch—of which you owned just one—needed to withstand rugged adventure while looking downright debonair. I call such timepieces dressy tool watches, or DTWs.
Although I have many watches like many always looking for the one as I come from humble origins you had "A" watch it told time that was it's purpose. I remember my dad he had a watch "Dad's watch" that was it wore it forever. Could this be it seems to check all the boxes, guess only one way to find out..........
Why did I keep looking!!

I wore the rep for a week found the same as you.
But really think about it Tudor doesn't seem priced so crazy when you look at our costs. We are specking out/price coast ratio to buy a 30 to 100k vintage big crown or build and it may have a few of the parts listed in it anyway.
I think we best go gen on that build spec sheet now that they stumbled into this .
