A Discussion around Two-Tone watches and why the will always remain as a special niche in our hobby instead of making a full-scale comeback. Every year we see the same headlines that “It’s Time to look at Two-Tone again” or “Give Two-Tone Another Chance”. But it has been the best part of thirty years since this combination materials was at its peak. What are the chances that overnight the trend of the 80’s and 90’s will boom again? Not all that high. But what are our thoughts on this combination of two vastly distinct materials? One Rugged and one Precious. And why do brands still produce them today?
