Agreed. I like the Tag Carrera but I don't own a Porsche.

---

Actually think the carrera is okay as they don't have any Porsche logos on the Dial or the front of the watch.

---

The Carrera watch wasn't named after the car.

What a cool rabbit hole

I failed miserably at taking pictures but I got to handle the majority of Tutima's collections today and was extremely impressed, especially given the price.

*Disclaimer* - I am definitely biased as this was a meeting to discuss an AD partnership. Very excited as this was one of the brands that really drove the desire to start my own store.

I only took photos of the blue M2 Seven seas S and a few of the lady sky collection:

So Tutima is a subsidiary of Glashutte I presume?

Tutima is Indipendent.

Glashutte is the town in Saxony, Germany. So Tutima, amongst many other well known German brands are in Glashutte. A Lange & Sohne, Nomos Glashutte, Glashutte Original, Muhle Glashutte for example.

It's basically the hub of German watchmaking. Very complicated and fascinating history if you're up for a read.

Interesting fact the "/SA or I/sa you see after Glashutte on many of these brands' watches stands for "in Saxony". Kind of how we put , TX.

Ah ok. I just assumed it was another Glaschutte sub brand cuz the name is on it.

Tutima is a fantastic brand, they have a great aviation heritage and made fighter chronos for the Luftwaffe in WWII.

They have a gazillion different iterations, but my favorite lines are the M2, and the patria but my favorite solitary watch is the grand flieger airport which reminds me of a much better finished SINN.

Really nice dial on the lady sky.

Those dials and the rolled link bracelet really look nice together. I wish it had an inhouse movement instead of what is likely a modified Selllita.

I really like that Seven Seas! I wish Longines has placed the Hydroconquest date window at the 6'0'clock like that instead of at the 3. Would have looked more balanced.

The dials on those ladies are awesome...especially the blue!

Those look great. Hope it works out.

Yeah I'd agree with that. They are doing fully in house movements on the patria collection.

https://en-magazine.tutima.com/patria/

Not saying they're going fully in house, but from talking to them, their in house movements are a major focus for the future. I'd love to see it trickle down to the other collections one day.

You should try to get Hanhart on board. They make some of the highest quality chronos for half of what is considered entry level now.

I know they're pretty tight with Watchbuys for North America, but would be a great addition.

And unimatic. Most of their us distributors seem to almost be shell company LLCs

Speaking of Sinn, I wish he could get them. Watchbuys is the only dealer that I know of this side of the pond .

Yeah Watchbuys has Sinn and Hanhart on lockdown for the time being. Hopefully one day.

As a consumer I hate that their sole "distributor" does not actually distribute, but from a business perspective it makes perfect sense for Watchbuys.

I will say, if you're a Sinn fan, Tutima is really worth a look. The pilot and tool watch have a lot of similarities and very comparable price points.

That first Tutima has a very Sinn-esque bracelet ! I have one German watch, Laco. Maybe a Tutima will be on the list one day

After I bought myself the Speedmaster, decided it was time to step my dad's game up for Father's Day.

Apparently, my mom and I need to coordinate better because she decided to step up his watch game for Father's Day to the tune of something much nicer. I'm just now getting around to posting this. I'd like to get what I paid, which was $2100. I got it from Crescent Watch Guys (great guy by the way) here in Houston via eBay Live Auction. I'm in Houston and happy to meet. I'd say it is in very good to excellent condition. No flex in the band. No box or papers, but it does have the Tudor hang tag.

Comps on eBay and Chrono all appear well above my ask.

On another note, miraculously my ZRC MN64 survived 6ft of depth in the pool.

---

I need shades for the lume on those hands.

Oh man they are super bright.

Took these yesterday. Neither are that blue one but same lume. One is the smaller heritage and the other is a full lume mn64

That full lume is crazy.

Free watch Monday. My car dealer where I bought my last watch opened up a new Porsche dealership in the Middle East, and they had some freebies from Porsche Design.

My Sales guy snagged me one, and the case matches the exterior of the car I bought from him, and the interior matches the strap.

Dang, you stole my exact story.

That's sexy. I love Porsche design watches. I think you forgot to show us the car though?

Iran actually blew it up in a drone strike.

If anyone else is looking for the Longines cookie monster they are finally in stock. I think I'm going to put a black strap on it when it comes in and give it a more sporty look

You will think it's ugly, but I love it. I'm 6'5" 300lbs, I don't fit into many sports cars, but I love going fast.

I bought a BMW XM red label. 770 hp, gigantic front and second row, decent sized trunk, incredible infotainment.

Thing is an absolute rocket, super spacious, and the most fun car I've ever had.

Got my 39mm HC last Monday. Love it.

CT6 was better

I am not a fan of the buck tooth grilles, and I'm pretty sure it's not a Porsche, but I bet it's fun!
