Our round-up of the finest timepieces you can buy, in every price bracket
Ball Watch Engineer II Volcano

Once known as Rolex’s little, budget brother, Tudor has now stepped up a gear by producing an in-house movement, the MT5621. Handily, it has 70 hours’ power reserve, and this first incarnation will weather sub-zero conditions.
