Baselworld 2015 Preview: Clerc Hydroscaph GMT Power-Reserve Chronometer
This year at Baselworld, Clerc is introducing a new addition to its dive-focused Hydroscaph collection. The Clerc Hydroscaph GMT Power-Reserve Chronometer uses a recognizable Hydroscaph case but with a few useful new features. Let’s take a look at what it offers.It’s important for a divers’ watch to balance its set of crucial functions alongside legibility. The wearer needs to be able to take a reading off of the dial (and bezel) at a glance. In terms of design, Clerc sets itself a decent challenge by incorporating the power-reserve indicator and a 24-hour GMT hand onto the display in addition to basic time- and date-telling duties. The power reserve is shown in a small, neat scale between 11 and 1 o’clock, using the dial’s accent color (yellow on the model shown here).The date aperture clips off the large stylized hour numeral at 3 o’clock. Pride of place is given to the 24-hour window, which fills the bottom quarter of the dial. Ample luminous mate

Introducing: The Tudor Heritage Black Bay Bronze, Now With In-House Tudor Manufacture Movement (Details + Official Pricing)
The Black Bay and Pelagos dive watches are two of the most dramatically successful vintage-inspired, and eminently affordable, dive watches anyone is producing today, and while they're not the letter-perfect reboots of original vintage models that some would have preferred, we think Tudor's been smart to keep a lot of the salient details of their vintage dive watches, but avoid rote repetition. The worst-case scenario for vintage-inspired watches in general is when designers add unwanted features that break the spell of immersion in history and heritage, thereby making you feel as if you just have to try too hard to love a watch you really want to love. The newest Black Bay from Tudor is now out, and in some ways it's the most risky one yet: Tudor's delivering it in bronze, which can be a dichotomizing metal to use in what's supposed to be a classically inspired, unpretentious diver's instrument watch. 1 OF 8 This one, however, really looks like it

Omega GMT
Does anyone know the last year the GMT black model was produced? Is the anniversary edition the last year? Where can I pick up a new one from and how much will I have to pay? The Ebay prices on the used ones are all over the map.

5167R - bling or no bling
I'm considering a 5167r and, while I wouldn't wear a full gold watch, I've read some of the comments on this forum and it seems that some 5167r owners to feel differently about 5167r, in that it does not have the bling normally associated with gold watches. Is it still considered a sport watch in gold? I have a 5167a which I'm bonded to, but would consider flipping that for 5164a to complement 5167r. Appreciate any comments.
