Stand Out from The Crowd with Our Top Statement Watches for Men
By Amanda Evans | 4 minute read
There’s no doubt about it, the timepiece that you wear upon your wrist is observed by more people than you realise. In fact, a gentleman’s watch is not only a functional piece of wrist jewellery – it also represents the type of individual that you are or that you aspire to be.
Luxury watch brands are very astute to the needs of the modern man of today, designing timepieces that work in partnership with you and your chosen sport, such as diving or racing, or reflecting your chosen lifestyle or inherent personality. Although many seek a timepiece that is as demure as their character, there are also those whose timepiece needs to say as much about them as their extravert personality, distinguished and polished appearance or high-flying ambitions.
We’ve chosen some of our favourite timepieces to suit those who are seeking a gentleman’s watch that really makes a statement.
TUDOR Pelagos LHD
Representing an Adventurous Spirit
Built for extreme underwater conditions, the TUDOR Pelagos is an essential diver’s tool with an incredible water resistance to 500 metres. The 42mm case engineered from titanium and presented on a titanium bracelet has a black dial, and black bezel with ceramic inlay. Luminous batons and markers ensure maximum visibility in the depths of the ocean. Housing TUDOR’s self-winding MT5612 with a power reserve of up to 70 hours, this striking timepiece is not only the perfect partner for any diver, but also a striking symbol of mechanical brilliance and flawless style.
Breitling Endurance Pro 44mm
Representing a bold and energetic personality.
The 44mm Endurance Pro is the ultimate lightweight watch for both the professional athlete and the individual seeking a casual everyday sports chronograph. Featuring a thermo-compensated SuperQuartz™ movement, it combines precision with innovative technology positioning it as the ultimate athleisurewatch in the brand’s Professional range. Presented on a vibrant yellow rubber strap, the Endurance Pro has a bold and colourful design aesthetic that can’t be missed.
Bremont Limited Edition Longitude
Representing a passion to own a piece of history.
This Limited Edition Bremont Longitude, created in partnership with the Greenwich Royal Observatory, has a 40mm stainless steel case and is presented on an alligator embossed calf leather strap. The metal dial has a raised central globe depicting longitude lines with a Meridian line running from 12 to 6 o’clock where the beautifully detailed power reserve indicator is placed. Housing the brand’s first ever manufactured movement from the ENG300 series, marking a significant milestone in the brand’s history, and incorporating original brass from the historic Flamsteed Meridian Line at the Greenwich Royal Observatory in London, this timepiece is a piece of British history worn by those in the know.
OMEGA Seamaster Diver 300m James Bond 007 2020 Edition
Representing a sophisticated charm for those not shy of conversation
Identical to the timepiece worn by 007 in No Time to Die, this watch is a real conversation starter at any dinner party or outing. Sophisticated yet with a powerful and eye-catching aesthetic, this stunning timepiece won’t let you down in performance either. Water resistant to 300 metres and powered by a Master Chronometer 8806 self-winding calibre, this timepiece meets the exacting standards one would expect of Mr Bond himself. The lightweight titanium case frames a black aluminium dial and coordinating bezel, with brown hour markers and sword shaped hands striking a rich contrast. Presented on a titanium mesh bracelet with an engraved caseback, this timepiece is sure to impress.
Hublot Spirit of Big Bang Titanium Ceramic Chronograph
Representing a desire to stand out from the crowd
This Hublot Spirit of Big Bang encapsulates the brand’s reputation for combining high performance with bold designs that harness the art of fusion. Anything but ordinary, the 45mm barrel shaped titanium case with polished and micro-blasted black ceramic bezel surrounds a unique skeletonised dial with rhodium plated hands and hour markers with white luminescence for maximum visibility, and three chronograph subdials. Presented on a black leather strap, this unique timepiece is a winner for those wishing to challenge the norm.
