COURTESY LEEDS & SON FINE JEWELERS

Less a time-telling tool than an accessory of cool, a man’s wristwatch remains a style essential, conveying sophistication, adventure, and lifestyle. What would Bond or Batman have been without their bold watches?

A casual take on a sleek and elegant timepiece, the Tudor Heritage Chrono Blue is suited for the insouciant man who lives in the lap of luxury and likes to play in the great outdoors. Reminiscent of the 1973 Montecarlo, it features a bidirectional bezel with a blue anodized aluminum insert, and houses a self-winding mechanical chronograph movement with 42-hour power beneath its sapphire crystal. It has a counter at 3 o’clock for the small second hand, and one at 9 o’clock for the 45-minute counter. And it’s waterproof to depths of 500 feet.

Take that, iPhone.
