Tutima Patria Admiral: Blue Blazes For Every Day

The blue-dialed version of the Tutima Patria Admiral Blue was introduced at Baselworld 2019, and during a recent trip to Glashütte and environs I had the opportunity to wear it for a couple of days While the gold cases amplify what precious objects these watches are alongside putting a focus on their heritage, it is great to see that Tutima now offers the Patria time-only model in a stainless steel case In a way, blue has also become a tradition of sorts these days in high-end stainless steel sports watches, yet the Patria is not a member of that club.

While a few modest design changes could have very well made that an ambition, Tutima distinctly chose for the Patria to become more of an everyday dress watch Usually, the appeal of even some of the most exceptional watches tends to wear off ever so slightly, but even after a couple of days on the wrist the Patria continued to provide a wow-factor every time I looked at it The Tutima Patria is one of those very few watches where everything seems to be on point.

For a watch journalist, especially in this day and age, this represents a small nightmare: while you weren't paid or compensated in any way to do so, and in fact traveled to the manufacture on your own dime to do the story, your review of the watch might be viewed as suspiciously enthusiastic. .
