Another great video and refreshing commentar. Two beautifully different divers. In the meantime currently double dating a Sinn U50 and Marathon 41m Arctic GSAR.
Rolex Explorer / Submariner. Boom. The Explorer is elevated enough to wear with a suit / formal event and EDC the Sub. You also get a size difference with 36/40mm instead of the same
Loving the content Mark! Great combo deal you choose, Can't make a combo meal deal myself have to make a Trio deal! from my collection, Rolex SD 16600 , Tudor M.N FXD & Seamaster 2254.50 ! All true icons from there brands respectively in my opinion.
Thanks for the feedback and three is cheating! Although that is one heck of a threesome! And one from each brand. I would probably add my DJ36 if I went 3-up
Great combo. I have been on a similar journey to you with dress watches, chronos etc and have ended up with a similar combo funnily enough: the Omega 2255.80 electric blue and the Tudor 79230N original black bay heritage black. I find these two also work very well as “dressy sports” watches that are GADAs. I guess it’s just the opposite color combo from yours as I always think of seamasters as blue and black bays as, well, black! Can’t go wrong with this combo. Much like fried eggs and baked beans haha. Keep up the good work!!
As AC3 would say, wind and wear Chewdah! My Combo Meal may end up being two Tudor divers, the MN-FXD that hasn’t left my wrist in two weeks and an incoming BB54 on the bracelet. I may end up alternating evenly between the two. While both are Tudor divers, the purpose-built FXD is less formal than the smaller, thinner BB54. In fact, the Black Bay 54 (on the bracelet) may end up becoming my dress watch. At 37mm, it is a lot smaller than some dress watches. My dress watches (Nomos Ludwig 33, antique Hamilton Ashley) are significantly smaller than the dress diver.
That Tudor is great. Superb sports watch. But for a two watch combo meal deal you need a dressy option…2 divers just won’t work for all occasions. Would be good to add a VC Overseas dual time or maybe a Rolex Explorer as your robust dressy option. But we all know two watches just won’t suffice…ardicts we all are.
Hello yes I sold that Speedmaster Reduced Chrono. Loved it but not enough to keep in the rotation. Another one of those 'buy before you try' experiences!
@@CykOfficial Yes the triple date was the 39mm Speedy Chrono in blue, although I also bought an electric blue Seamaster around that time. The Chrono is nice, and absolutely nothing about it displeased me. I just didn't bond with it after the initial honeymoon phase. We had to have one of those "it's not you, it's me" conversations!
@sakurikala3140 its a reminder not to take yourself so seriously. There are far bigger things to worry about in this world than luxury watches, I'm sure you'll agree 👍

Yellow gold Daydate 40 and the new gold Seadweller works for me.

Very similar combo to mine yes! There must be something common in these models

Chew-dah!! love it!! that BB54 is one I have yet to see in the flesh but as you say, it could be the perfect dress watch to compliment the FXD
Very nice pair and they both hopefully fly under the radar! but i'm not going to kid myself that 2 watches would ever be enough 😂

For me it would be my Nomos Neomatik Club Sport 42 blue and my spedfy MOTM
Mine has turned out to be Explorer 2 polar weekdays and Alinghi FXD at the weekends
Superb!
Got a similar combo. Diver duo consisting of BB58 blue and Modern Sub (no date) as my 2 and done for the time being.
Oooh yes two crackers there! Very nice
Similar to my 2 watch collection! I have the 2264.5 as a daily and a SD43 126600!
Perfect! Congratulations 🎊
Nice
Hi Mark, can I know what happened to your omega speed master blue?
Hello yes I sold that Speedmaster Reduced Chrono. Loved it but not enough to keep in the rotation. Another one of those 'buy before you try' experiences!
@@TheRandomWatchDude I was referring to the electric blue one, with Day and month. I too almost bought one. What’s the best and worst things about it

If you look at Sean Connery’s Submariner (the Ref. 6538 in Goldfinger) when he has it on a NATO strap it is way thinner so your 2mms gap is nothing.
Yeh I figured if it's good enough for 007 it's good enough for me!
Why on earth you have a picture of Putin on your intro?
Very random isn't it!
It shouldn't be in this world situation @@TheRandomWatchDude
