Good looking, comfortable on the wrist, well made, keeps excellent time and very robust. My upgrade pick for an ideal everyday watch would be a Rolex Oyster Perpetual 41 or a Tudor Black Bay 58.

Really enjoyed the video! My everyday watch is a Tudor Glamour Double Date in 42mm, so it can fit my relatively big wrist. It combines everything I wanted in an everyday watch. Simple layout, big date, bracelet, lumed hands, in-house calibre, 100WR with screw down crown so I can take it for a swim and a price that won’t get me riled up everytime I see a new scratch. Also, the fact that no one knows about this watch, makes it even more attactive to my eyes. Cheers!
@anthonystevens86833 жыл бұрын
I can't agree more about the Glamour Double Date, I have the white/silver dial, small seconds version with the blue hands and markers. A cracking watch for the price and like you if it get's the odd scratch it's down to the journey and not the price. It adds character in my humble opinion. I'm happy to wear it daily or in rotation. I love that it flies under the radar for such a COSC time piece..

Great selections for your everyday watch, excellent video Mark! I loved your guests. I agree, wear the watch everyday, don’t leave it in a safe. I wear a minimum of 2 watches per day, all of mine are worn, otherwise, time to part with it. I rotate 12 watches out of my collection all the time. All mechanicals never sit more than 4-5 weeks without being worn or wound, better for the movement. Sometimes I wear a watch on both wrists to enjoy them that much more.

I really liked Mark’s description of an everyday watch - wear what you want and it should be your most expensive one. For me, Rolex GMT Batman on Jubilee. You don’t need anything else. You have your time and date. You can time things with the bezel or know a different time zone. And with the jubilee it gives you not only the casual cool look but you can easily dress it up.

I think the idea of a dress watch is on the verge of obsolescence, perhaps the recent situation has killed it off. Wearing a suit (!) one can 'get away' with wearing a suitable diver e.g. Oris 65. Some situations it could be not the done thing to wear any watch ; or just buy a squre solar Seiko.

Although my Tudor BB58 is my daily, I find the Hamilton Khaki is probably the best daily watch. Dress it up with a leather, throw it on a bracelet, a Nato, beat it up (its not expensive at all) take it to work, and change straps as often as you want with those drilled lugs. Like a poor man's Rolex Explorer, it's just neutral enough to go with anything. People wonder why watch lovers like boring watches and its probably because they're a blank slate; you can dress it up to go with everything
