IWC is rather nice, I'd probably take the TBB Chrono over it tho. If ardoise dial I pick that IWC.

Depends what you are in the mood for. An aviation style chronograph or a vintage inspired diver. I would probably pick the BB dark based off of looks alone.

Given those choices the IWC takes it for me! I'm a sucker for a mechanical chronograph

Among the selection provided, I would choose IWC. I have 3717 chronograph. It is extremely precise and reliable. That said, I also just bought a BB Chrono, which I am also enjoying a lot.

I'm somewhat offended by the fact that Tudor puts a dive watch on a leather strap. So for that reason alone I'd go with the IWC! (Plus I like the IWC a bit more.)

No other Watchmaker brand beats the IWC Pilot in its 2 outstanding features
✓ Superb Roman Sword Hands.THE BEST in the business
✓ IWC's double AR coating with that almost invisible sublime bluish hue on the s.cI'm on HIS side

IWC in house movement over Tudor all day. The modified IWC ETA’s are kind of a toss up in my opinion. Not sure which that IWC is, ETA or in house. I’d probably choose one of the Tudors in this case, but it would be close.

Man, those watches are SO different... you want sea, or air?

Personally, I'd go for the IWC. I already have a Sub. I don't have a day/date/chrono/chocolate.
