Snowflake hands on a snowy day, the Tudor Pelagos LHD is the perfect weapon for a winter walk ☃️⁣
⁣
If you haven’t noticed already I always wear watches on my right wrist for reasons unbeknown to me. Thinking back I can only assume it has to do with my left handed mother. Right handed myself, the watch on the left wrist always seemed so foreign. So when a watch comes around offering you a Left Hand Dive alternative (and limited in production), I just had to take up the offer. Built in a titanium case, it’s perfectly light whilst incredibly sturdy and the perfect tool watch for any lefties who also enjoy diving or at least the design of a dive watch. I’m not left handed nor a diver but I love the looks and on this rubber strap it just screams UTILITY to me. ⁣
⁣
The snowy backdrop seemed perfect for such a watch and even better when you consider Tudor’s heritage with snowflakes... “The reasoning behind these snowflake hand was to offer more surface area on the dial for luminescence, thus providing better legibility whilst scuba diving in low light conditions. Additionally, due to their distinct shapes, the hands could immediately be identified from one another, minimizing the possibility of divers mixing up the hour and minute hands while diving in murky waters. As a result of their atypical appearance, this particular set of hands picked up the nickname “snowflake hands” by collectors – a name that is now officially used by Tudor.” #tudor #tudorwatches #tudorpelagos #tudorpelagoslhd #winterwatch #divewatch #wornwatchestellstories #wornwatches
