Only Watch 2021

[Baco Noir]

Thought it might be fun to have a thread where we all post previews and links to news on watches made for Only Watch 2021

I’ll start with the Tudor Black Bay GMT One. It has a cool worn gunmetal finish and a sapphire case back. I’m a fan.

I like the dial and hand finishes but I’m not sold on the case. I’d rather see it in dark titanium. I realize it’s a one off but that’s my .02.

What I like about that finish is it would hide all routine scratches without a problem.

muckymark - that's nice! I'm not usually a square case guy, but I like this one. I saw this picture on the Tag website.  Can't same I'm a fan of the strap = looks like cheap molded rubber.

For me, the Moritz Grossman is the choice. With a friction silver-plated dial. Has the original 'M. Grossman' logo from 1875. Also a gorgeous movement all hand finished. I really love some of this company's watches, and had an eye on them for a while. Not intending to buy, but admiring!

Love this movement picture.


More info on the strap from their website.

The watch is a tangible link between TAG Heuer’s history and future, with nods to the past through a forward-thinking lens. Take, for example, the TAG Heuer Only Watch Carbon Monaco strap: It’s a leather strap that reinterprets the iconic Monaco metal bracelet, but in curved leather. This was created through a highly technical process including the creation of a 3D membrane, something that would have been completely unthinkable or impossible…even just a few years ago.

LOL - I’ve read that 3 times and have no idea what it means!

While not very inspired (if that’s the right word here), it’s cool to see a Ti Jumbo Ultra Thin.

Wow, some neat stuff here.

[Baco Noir]

Here’s another cool one. Not into the rainbow effect but the sapphire case, open works, and double tourbillon are nice!
