Tudor Black Bay 58 M79030N<\/a><\/h1>\n

One of the hottest watches of the year came from Tudor who, by addressing the biggest criticisms of their popular Black Bay, found their sweet spot with the revised Black Bay 58. It\u2019s safe to say they underestimated demand, as this watch is still a tough ticket to come by. It\u2019s easy to see why, though – it takes all the best part of the Black Bay, like it\u2019s handsome throwback dial and riveted bracelet, puts it in a far more manageable 39mm case. Tudor also put the case on a diet, shaving off about 3mm of thickness. The result is a Black Bay suitable for all, and arguably what the watch should have been from the get go. <\/span><\/p>\n

Casio G-Shock Glacier Gold GA735E-7A<\/a><\/h1>\n

Casio continues to celebrate 35 years of their G-Shock brand with the Glacier Gold edition. While not for the faint of heart, these latest editions pack a lot of charm in some familiar packaging. The clear case and straps house gold internals and exterior detailing befitting of the Glacier Gold title. This example clocks in at 55mm, so it won\u2019t go unnoticed, but there\u2019s no denying the entertainment factor here. Maybe keep this one restrained to the less formal end of your closet, or don\u2019t, we\u2019re not your mom and we don\u2019t judge. Best of all, prices are parked safely under $300. <\/span><\/p>\n

Seiko Prospex SBDC061<\/a><\/h1>\n

Seiko has long been known for their dive watches, and for the latest Prospex reference SBDC061, they went back to examples from 1967 for inspiration. The 44mm case wears beautifully thanks to its tapered edges and integrated crown at 4 o\u2019clock. The dial itself is all throwback, and it\u2019s beautiful. Large lume plots at each hour set a distinct and simple tone, with the oversized hour hand providing the flair. The bezel is deep blue creating a touch of contrast at the edge. This one is all old-school diver with enough modern appeal to make it a perfect kick around desk diver. <\/span><\/p>\n

Rolex Air King 114200<\/a><\/h1>\n

The name Air-King may not be as well known as other Rolex stalwarts like the Submariner or Daytona, but it occupies an important range in their stable. Sitting at the entry point to the brand, the Air-King is a non-gendered dress watch incorporating some details you\u2019d find on some of the sportier models such as the Explorer. This example boasts a 3-6-9 dial within a 34mm case housing the work horse caliber 3130. It\u2019s simple, but it works in all the right ways. We love the rich blue dial that comes to life in the right light. Big bonus points for working on both his and her wrists. <\/span><\/p>\n

Apple Watch Series 4 GPS 40mm Silver and Seashell A1977<\/a><\/h1>\n

Did you know that you can now snag Series 3 and 4 Apple Watches on StockX? Well now you do, and if you\u2019re looking for the perfect all around gift these holidays this is your ticket. Whether you\u2019re looking to get in shape, stay in shape, or just want to spend less time digging your phone out of your pocket, the Apple Watch is a tool that can be wielded at your discretion, with access to thousands of apps. If watches aren\u2019t your thing, you might be surprised at just how easy it is to wear the Apple Watch thanks to its soft case shape and exceedingly comfortable strap options. If you are a watch person, your only dilemma will be how to give equal wrist time to your mechanical pieces. Our solution: stick it on the other wrist.<\/span><\/p>\n

Rolex Explorer II 16570<\/a><\/h1>\n

The Explorer II reference 16570 may be long out of production, but it’s a watch that holds up surprisingly well, and offers an incredible value when it comes to Rolex sport watches. Unlike the new model (ref 216570), this reference wears much like Rolex watches of the past, meaning slim and comfortable, which makes sense as production began on this watch back in the late ’80s. This Explorer II bridges the past to the present, and good examples can be had well under $7,000. For much longer, we can’t say, but don’t sleep on this one.<\/p>\n

Omega Speedmaster 60th Anniversary<\/a><\/h1>\n

The Omega Speedmaster is a perennial favorite around here, and the 60th anniversary model is how a throwback should be done. The watch, introduced last year to celebrate, well, 60 years of the Speedmaster, mimics the original from 1957 in all the right ways, including the size. Of course, inside things are thoroughly modern. If you’re a purists or a Speedy collector, this one is a must have.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
