My Tudor Black Bay Chrono Pink Reaction Video

Tudor just released a “daring” Black Bay Chrono in pink. In this video I will share my thoughts on the subject.

That is an awesome looking watch👊🏼👊🏼 I would definitely buy and wear this watch. I wear pink shirts and ties.

Based. This guy should rename his channel, “The Humble Hunk”. Subbed.

[@thehumblehorologist6091]

Ha! But thanks for watching :-)

[@ZAKAZWLEWO]

same opinnion here :) Not for me too, I have 3 tudor's and I am missing chronograph, but for sure I never pick pink one haha

[@mazharbang]

I do agree with you Pink is a color of girls

[@EiferBrennan]

Have you ever examined why you believe that? Just to be clear I am not attacking you, I'm honestly curious.

[@mazharbang]

@@EiferBrennan since I was a kid pink used to be worn by girls all around so growing up that color registered into my thought process as a feminine color. I don’t recall any man in my life wearing pink. Gender. In Europe and the United States, pink is often associated with girls, while blue is associated with boys. These colors were first used as gender signifiers just prior to World War I (for either girls or boys), and pink was first established as a female gender signifier in the 1940s.and till date in any hospital when girls are born pink color is used as identification and blue is for boys. Hope this helps.

@@mazharbang it helps me understand your mentality about it yes. However, it boils down to this. In spite of the fact that it's a common theme, colors are not gendered. In the grand scheme of things pink is just a lighter shade of red. Nothing more.

[@EiferBrennan]

Gendered colors as a concept reveals itself as hollow if you put any amount of critical thought to the idea. This is why some people might assert you're not as secure in your masculinity as you claim to be. Please note that I am not giving that assertion, merely explaining its likely origins. They're typically skeptical people who took the philosophy of "question everything" to heart and challenge every belief they have or had. If that belief no longer holds water for them, they abandon it. In other words, if they have no logical reason to believe that concept, they won't. Skepticism is a healthy thing and helps make you a more well-rounded person. I disagree with your opinion on this watch, and have issues with the reasoning as I've shown. That being said, I respect you, because you're not stating it as an objective fact. Personally, I'm on the fence about it. On one hand, it's nice watch overall, but I'm not thrilled with the shade of pink they chose. I would have gone more the Grand Seiko Shunbun dial. It's a "softer" pink, almost white, like the cherry blossoms it's inspired by.

[@thehumblehorologist6091]

Such a well-reasoned comment, how can I help but respond? You pointed out a noteworthy truth: I did not frame my distaste for the pink Tudor within the realm of objective fact. There is probably a myriad of reasons why one might find this pink watch a showstopper. Your disagreement with my assessment confirms there's at least one. The gendering of pink, I believe, is purely cultural and contextual. Like I think I mentioned in the video, at one point pink was considered a color worn only by royalty or the very wealthy. However, regardless of what brought it about, I do think the association of pink with femininity is now deeply ingrained within a wide swath of western society. To borrow from Darth Vader, the grain is deep with this one ;-) Thanks for taking the time to watch and comment. Much appreciated!

Very cool explanation, thanks!

[@EiferBrennan]

@@thehumblehorologist6091 absolutely the gendering of colors is a cultural thing. My entire point is that cultural thing is just plain silly. Not everything that is cultural is silly just this particular idea is. However I recognized that your dislike is more nuanced than that and I respect your opinion.

[@tiderider]

You don't own the watch. You didnt handle it personally. You are reacting to a color. This is just a video for content.

[@thehumblehorologist6091]

Ummm, yeah. That’s pretty much it. It was a color thing. Very astute.

[@aDocandhisWatch]

Very 1800s kind of comment but ok.. 😂 pink can be cool in certain occasions my friend. Got a chill and adapt a bit.. has nothing to do with sexual preference or gender

[@thehumblehorologist6091]

I used to have a pink t-shirt that read “pink is the new black.” However, I prefer the old black these days ;-)

[@aDocandhisWatch]

@@thehumblehorologist6091can’t argue with black.. goes with with everything. But it’s great to have crazy colors in watches to mix it up 🙌🏻👍🏻

[@zastiuth1]

this guy is obsolete...

[@thehumblehorologist6091]

😂 I was obsolete the day I was born.

[@EiferBrennan]

All right I disagree with him on the idea of gendered colors, and I made that very clear in a comment, but there's no reason to be rude. You just make yourself look like an asshole.
