Back to Black: Tudor Releases Black Bay “Black” Watch

There’s just something about the color black. It’s simple, classic, minimal, can be dressed up or dressed down, and best of all — it goes with just about everything. So we couldn’t tell you how excited we were when we found out that the Swiss watch label Tudor, Rolex’s little brother, in case you didn’t know, is introducing one of its most favorite styles in black. That’s right, the Heritage Black Bay divers’ watch, one of Tudor’s most popular styles —which was first released in 2012 and a winner at the Grand Prix d’Horlogerie de Genève — is coming out with a black bevel. Previously, it only came in red and blue, which could be an inconvenience if you don’t want to be associated with blue or red.

Previously, there was only one Tudor Heritage Black Bay model in black that was made for the Only Watch charity auction. This release marks the first time that the Tudor Heritage Black Bay model timepiece will be available to the general public in all black. So next time you want to go for a dive, look sharp in a suit, or be cool in jeans, a t-shirt and a pair of Converse, go for the Tudor Heritage Black Bay timepiece. It will keep you on time whether you’re 200 feet deep in the ocean, or running around the streets of a major city in the world.

Man sitting outdoors -- Feature for REI Winter Sale early Black Friday event

While everyone else is busy shopping the most popular Black Friday deals on electronics, like TVs, tools, games, and all that nonsense, I like to spend my time shopping for things I actually need. You know what I mean. The gear that rarely goes on sale or sees those deep discounts we all know and love. A perfect example is fall and winter gear, from clothing, jackets, and other apparel, to camping, climbing, travel, fitness supplies, and more. Right now, one of the best places to shop for all of that stuff, at great prices, is REI. You can expect to save up to 30% off gear and clothing in a wide variety of categories.

What to shop in the REI Winter Sale on gear and clothing

It seems obvious, but I would recommend sitting down and either considering or figuring out what gear you and your family need this winter. Actually, sit down and figure out if there's any gear you'll need for the coming year. Some of the items on sale are usable year-round, like camping, hiking, and fitness gear. But let's provide some examples. In the REI Winter Sale, you can save up to 30% off The North Face apparel, up to 30% off outdoor electronics like Garmin, BioLite, and more, up to 25% off footwear, including boots, and up to 50% off jackets. Again, those are just some quick examples. There are a ton of other options in this sale.

Iconic watch brand Universal Genève is back
Universal Genève has been brought back to life by Breitling
Universal Geneve Compax

One of the biggest luxury watch brands, Universal Genève, returns to life after 20 years. While the brand is famous for its exquisite timepieces, it has been inactive in recent years, which is why you can be forgiven if you don't know much about it.

From 1894 to the present, the brand amassed a huge following, even though it eventually went under. Universal Genève was hugely affected by the 1989 quartz crisis, and it was acquired by Stelux Holdings in the ‘90s. Unfortunately, Stelux couldn’t revive the brand—things went silent in 2005.

The future is now—a watch that Girard-Perregaux created for the future has been reintroduced in a new version. Popular for its futuristic design and features, the Casquette 2.0 is back in titanium and gold. These are new finishes that have never been featured in previous generations.

Since Girard-Perregaux is a brand that puts its customers first, it developed a timepiece that aligned with its customers’ vision in 2022 and launched it as the Casquette 2.0. Two years later, it rolled out a new version of the Casquette 2.0.
