From Mark's experience at a significant in-person watch link launch to our combined thoughts link on the spec pricing and market placement for the new Ranger it's link a nerdy look at a conventional yet somehow divisive new field watch from Tudor. Thanks so much for listening I'll see you all in the comments.

Rather than introduce link a driving chronograph to tie the Autobahn to its evocative name Aisslinger's watch features a partial luminous dial ring recalling the lit-up displays on the dash of a car hurtling down the German Autobahn in the dark of the night. The initial watches from a few years ago made link such an link impression that it's one of the two or three collections I tend to think of when I think of NOMOS.

For the purposes of this discussion I am going to keep this limited to the Speedmaster link 3861 in steel though the 2021 release cycle did also bring some killer precious metal options. link Oh and then 2022 saw the introduction of the Moonshine link Speedy which damn.

While the Swiss watch industry may often appear to move link at a glacial pace survival within such an environment is far from guaranteed.

Its something worth trying to see in person even if the idea of a silver-cased dive watch is not your cup of tea a fair enough position. It does not look like steel or white gold link or platinum. Additionally Tudor says that this particular silver link will not tarnish in the link normal fashion so only time will tell if that lovely glow is something that will need to be maintained.

This stone also brings with it a bit of historical link significance. Legend has it that soldiers from the Roman Empire wore Tiger's Eye stones around their necks for protection in battle and in the link Middle Ages it was used to ward off evil spirits. For Moser the stone wards off boredom it's yet another step forward in dial design from the team that brought you the watch made of link Swiss cheese."
