It's the brands that are slow to react.While I'm going to save some speculation, given the intent for a Hands-On later today, I can't imagine a more sensible and direct line extension from Tudor. And that goes for the Black Bay, the 58, and certainly the brand's recent GMT prowess. The BB GMT is a simply excellent watch, but the mere existence of the 58 has left something of a void for us GMT nerds – and now we have it.There are plenty of gems in the Reflection collection: an all white diamond-set model for the traditionalist; a model with a peacock motif, made up of chrysoprases, obsidian, emeralds, Paraiba tourmalines with iridescent blue-green lacquer – for the bold; and an opal, amethyst, spessartite garnet and tiger's eye set cuff – for the even bolder.
