Tudor Pelagos 42mm
A patrol officer for a city agency in Orange County, California. He does not dress the job up. "Working the beat, pushing a black and white in 95 degrees, waiting for a suspect to flee so I can chase, like the patrol gods would want." On his wrist, a Tudor Pelagos 42mm.

Tudor Pelagos 42
When Tudor launched the Pelagos in 2012, it built the tool watch its parent company would not. Full titanium case and bracelet, matte ceramic bezel, 500 meters of water resistance, and a helium escape valve for saturation work, all in 42mm with no polish and no nostalgia. It was a professional instrument at a moment when most dive watches had become dress watches with bezels.
In 2015 the Pelagos received its most important update, Tudor's in house calibre MT5612, a COSC certified chronometer with roughly 70 hours of power reserve, replacing the outsourced movement of the first generation. The spec sheet reads like an engineering brief, which is exactly the point.
The Pelagos earned its reputation as the thinking professional's dive watch, bought by people who read specifications instead of marketing. It rides through a 95 degree patrol shift now, one more instrument that has to be right every time he looks down.
