Around this time of the year I'm prone to a bit of the old best watch' game running through my favourite releases in a particular brand or category. And typically it's a pretty clear-cut decision for me. Not so with Tudor's 2017 collection. I've found myself going back and forth over two watches pretty much since I first saw them: the Black Bay Steel and the Black Bay S&G. In a way though my indecision makes perfect sense, as these two models are perhaps the two most extreme expressions of the Black Bay line. The Steel is the epitome of Black Bay as rugged tool watch, a space that the brand is very comfortable in. But the S&G is something else entirely. Luxurious, dressy and depending on who's wearing it a little showy. And while it's not a side of the Black Bay we're used to seeing, it's a look that suits the versatile diver exceptionally well. I suspect this isn't the last time we'll be seeing precious metals in the Black Bay family
