cobar 0 Posted December 9, 2015 Nomos Tangomat Red 12 on black leather Or Tudor Heritage Black Bay Red on leather strap For day to day office wear and once a moth as a dress watch with fine attire. I know these are VERY different watches, one being a diver and all; I just want your personal opinions Thanks guys, stay classy ???? No flames please ????

Chiquita Fanjita 1,803 Posted December 9, 2015 Tudor for me. Absolutely love my Black Bay. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Foxindebox 472 Posted December 9, 2015 Personally, I'm a big fan of the black bay but not with "fine attire". The BB is very much a sports watch and not to my tastes as a dress watch. Different strokes I suppose Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
BadPickle 2,792 Posted December 9, 2015 Tudor for me. Absolutely love my Black Bay. me too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mstan 2,152 Posted December 9, 2015 I've had both of these reps and would hands down go for the Tudor. The Tangomat was a nice watch for wearing with a suit but not versatile enough for me any other time. Get both and flip the one you wear less! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wriggles 12 Posted December 9, 2015 I'd choose whichever I liked the most and ignore the opinions of random internet people. That way madness (or disappointment) lies Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RUSH2112 11 Posted December 9, 2015 You need both unfortunately. BB for office, nomos for dress Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HTD 0 Posted December 9, 2015 The black bay. The Nomos is nice but in my opinion does not fit every occasion. The black bay however fits every occasion easily. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cobar 0 Posted December 9, 2015 Awesome guys, thanks so much for your thoughts; have a penny. I'm going with the Nomos for now but will probably treat myself to the Tudor for Christmas... Maybe even in Blue with a nato strap... God too many watches!. I'll post a full revi w when it arrives Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Left Coast Guy 24 Posted December 10, 2015 I see you've made your decision, but to add my two cents, I found the Nomos to be a tiny watch. I don't have giant wrists (like 7.5"), but as a bigger guy, it looked tiny and weird on me. The Black Bay on the other hand is a perfect fit. Its 42MM with a slim profile, so its its still small-ish. And maybe its just me, but the Nomos is so simple that it doesn't really look special. I mean its not hard to imagine someone copying a Nomos as its soooo easy to copy, but that Black Bay, that is impressive on the wrist, its impressive as hell that there is a copy of that thing! I've owned both and sold the Nomos right off, cause I just didn't bond with it... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I wouldn't say that I have a big wrist at all so I am hoping that the Nomos will be just right. But I do recon that the Tudor may just be on my wrist by Christmas too...

I wasn't offended if that's what you mean nor did I mean to cause offence.... It is (in my opinion) an absolutely brilliant quote from the equally brilliant movie trainspotting. The vagueness of the title "what would you choose" reminded me of the quote and I couldn't help myself sharing it..... And to answer the OPs question get this: And get it on a bracelet it's the best rep bracelet I've ever had and you can always add a leather strap later and the rep one is crap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
rusky27 1,847 Posted December 15, 2015 I Love my tudor black bay, the gold hands and print against the black face accented by the red bezel insert - framed by the raised crystal, finished off with that distressed leather strap works every time for me!

MA123 85 Posted December 15, 2015 Tudor all day - but has to be the blue/black version rather than red to make it more versatile for any occasion, esp when you have the bracelet and leather strap Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cobar 0 Posted December 16, 2015 My Nomos came in the post today and I'm very happy... However I will more than likely be ordering the Tudor with the Blue face in the new year... I'm just trying see if the price difference is justified between the two reps that Toro has on his site. $168 v $298 if anyone has a recommendation that would be great.
