Hands-On: The Tudor North Flag, With Tudor's Own In-House Movement
When HODINKEE got its first look at the North Flag in Baselworld last March, it was one of the biggest stories of the show – Tudor was launching not only a new model, but its own in-house movement, which were both major firsts. We’ve been able to spend a bit more time with the watch over the last week, and we’ve got a somewhat broader perspective now on exactly what this watch means to us, and what it might mean to you. 1 OF 9 The North Flag is the tip of the spear of an effort by Tudor, which has been unfolding for us since the brand’s re-entry into the U.S. market was announced in 2013, to come out from under the shadow of The Crown – an effort that has clearly paid off.  It feels, however, like the company has been here longer than that – of course, Tudors were sold in the US market for decades, leading up to 1996 when it left, and the 2010 international launch of the Heritage Chronograph was the beginning of an absolutely massi

Introducing: The Limited Edition Zenith El Primero Chronomaster, In Partnership With The Sportscar Vintage Racing Association
Last February 18th, Zenith announced that it would partner this year with the Sports Car Vintage Racing Association, and we were on hand as the partnership was announced. We got together with Zenith right here in downtown Manhattan at the Manhattan Classic Car Club, which makes a wide range of vintage and exotic sports cars available to members (you know, in case you don't happen to have $11 million to spare for your own GT40 – or as is more likely, if you just like variety). 1 OF 9 It's a big year for Zenith in terms of automotive partnerships; HODINKEE's European Editor Arthur Touchot interviewed Zenith CEO Aldo Magada earlier this year at the Royal Automobile Club, on the occasion of the presentation to the press of the El Primero Chronomaster Hero Cup. We'll be hearing more from Zenith about their partnership with the SVRA, which is now in its 38th racing season and in 2016, plans a total of 16 events that will involve, the organization says, ove

help me find a king scuba!
Hey everyone. While doing my usual browsing the web looking at watches I stumbled across the "khaki scuba king" H64515337 W/ the black rubber strap w/ red stitching. Man is that a beauty or what. It reminds me of a Serket, which I've wanted for awhile, but just cant swing the $ right now. With a 2834 movement, sapphire crystal, screw down crown. day date.I currently dont have a watch with a rubber strap and have wanted one. The red stiching is a bonus. I've seen them going for around $500 online (which is a good price) but a few forum members have said they got them for a little over $300. So my question is : WHERE? If anyone has a lead on where to find one at a great price like that, I would greatly appreciate it. A post or PM maybe. I've been very happy with my "khaki aviator tachymiler" so this would be a great addition to my collection. and if anyone own's one, does this model have the "hamilton" engraved on the side of the case? Not a big fan of that. Thanks guys , Kurt

Shaping up to be a vintage week!
Besides the Bulova Oceanographer I got in the mail yesterday, I got a call this morning from an estate sale jeweler who's a customer of mine. She dislikes watches and refers to me, and here's what I picked up this afternoon:I'm not into Gruen or Hamilton and I know she gets those brands often. I'll be sure to post any good deals on the Sales forum for all the fellow vintage buffs. Oh, and something else is a year older today: I'm a prime vintage of 42 years. Getting an incredible piece like this is sure a great present. Tonight is steaks & dark beer on my girlfriend! She gave me my present early - she covered half of my Breitling ChronoCockpit I bought a few weeks ago to avoid the increase. Sweet, huh?
