Seconds hand and date = NOT dress. ;)
I have a little leniency for the seconds hand being there on a "true" dress watch just because I like them myself. The date on the other hand is a definite no no. You can have a "dressy _______" watch but if it has the date, it isn't a true "dress" watch.

P.s. I am fully aware of how pompous and douchey what I just wrote is. Can't help it when it comes to dress watches
While I know I'm slightly altering the connotation of "dress" here, maybe it's better to think of watches like these as "suit" watches.

Are they reserved for the most refined events? They might not be. Would they be at home under the jacket sleeve of a suit? Yes, they would. Just like a Rolex Day-Date is technically not a "dress" watch, but probably is not out of place while wearing either formal or less-than-formal attire.

For the record, I like what Marc is doing with his expansion of Islander watches to be more that SXK replacements.
For the most refined events, one should never wear a wristwatch at all. ;)

I like the looks of those Islander "Datejust" watches. I'd weirdly like them even more if they came in two-tone and had a cyclops.

What's old is new again. I have a couple of watches from the '70s with this case shape. I'm on the fence about this, and this style seems to be the next big trend.

I do know [mention]TheJohnP[/mention] is not going to like these. :D

Looks decent. Word has it there are automatics with black or blue textured dials coming later this year. I find it a bit odd that the bracelet shows a quick release mechanism in the videos yet I don't see any available options for straps.

[mention]yinzburgher[/mention] told us about the return of Nivada Grenchen here: https://manontime.com/viewtopic.php?f=5 ... ada#p59400

The company will re-introduce their Depthmaster model later this month, reportedly with several dial and hand options that are customizable, according to one of their IGs:

39mm in diameter, 47mm lug to lug, 20mm lug width

"Preorders will start mid February; it will priced at 850€ / CHF 920 / USD1000 deliveries in June"

I believe this is the original design, to which Benarus made a "homage"?

Just a few shots from their IG:

Bulova is releasing a new Devil Diver: https://www.bulova.com/us/en/product/96B350.html

Aside from a limited edition, the reissues from a couple of years ago were all 44mm wide, but this is coming in a much more sensible (and sympathetic to the original) 41mm. It still has the Myitoa 8xxx movement, and at the moment only seems to come in orange. No SS bracelet anymore either, just a black rubber strap. And they seemed to have made the case more satin (the 44mm models were high polish everywhere). MSRP is $750

Hodinkee article here: https://www.hodinkee.com/articles/bulov ... ntroducing

I've had the green 44mm on my wishlist for a while now, and even though I've tried it on my average sized wrists and it seemed wear not too badly, I couldn't get over the fact that it was probably too big. I might have to pick this up instead (when Jomashop has it at half the MSRP ;) )

It'll be interesting if Bulova fixed the nasty applied logo with this new version. I can't quite tell from the pic but it looks slightly different

This would definitely satiate my appetite for a Doxa-esque watch that has its own unique character, as well as checking off the box for a Clemson watch to wear for games. Definitely need this to hit 50% off sales territory to be realistic though.

Same logo and the orange almost seems neon. Have it in for review.
