Just One More Watch

The third watch from the brand, an the one that I think suits the whole 'tough titanium' ethos the best. Don't worry about the diameter, it really is a 42 that has just finished 'chest day' at the gym. Vintage salmon though? I'll be asking for black. Cheers, Jody

YOUR LOYAL COMPANION, NO QUESTIONS ASKED.

Designed for the adventurers who never want to be tied down; the ones always on the move.
The Valour harnesses the best of both worlds with a quartz and a mechanical movement all in one. Enjoy the mechanical feel of the
watch if you ever need to wind it up. But you won't need to 'cause it's just that accurate.
Just like your trusty ol' car, you trust the engine within. One foot on the pedal and you hit the open road. Strap on the Valour
and you're on to the next track.
Accurate. Tactile. Fuss-free.

OUR TOUGHEST TITANIUM MECA-QUARTZ CHRONO WATCH YET
The race of life is a marathon, not a sprint. So we need things that will last us through our journey. Which is why we build tough
watches that last.
We've coated the case with our ultra-cool ULTRAHEX™ technology which greatly increases its hardness level, making this timepiece
a workhorse capable of withstanding whatever you throw at it.
Take it for a spin. We promise you'll be impressed

SEAMLESS INTEGRATED PUSHERS
Is it a pusher? Is it not a pusher?
Peeking above the case ever so slightly, the pushers seem to blend right into the case to create the illusion that it doesn't
exist.
It's tiny details like these that make our watches one of a kind. Just like the wearer.

Hands-On With The New RZE Valour — An Ultra-Tough Titanium Mecha-Quartz Chronograph
The latest offering from RZE

I’ve been a part of the Fratello team for the better part of 10 months now, and despite the Speedmaster expertise in the ranks here, I think I was the only team member who didn’t have a chronograph, let alone a Speedmaster. Just don’t tell RJ, or I’ll probably be in trouble! Despite still not having a Speedmaster in the collection, I have finally added a chronograph in the form of this RZE Valour. It’s a great affordable watch that offers a decent bang for your buck. Let me tell you a little bit more about the watch that filled the chronograph gap in my watch box.

Watch collecting is obviously near and dear to our hearts. You wouldn’t be reading this article if you weren’t a watch nerd like the rest of us. For some, watches represent a simple tool for telling the time. And those people often have just one watch to cover all bases and be done with it. For us, watches represent a fascination and a hobby. We look for individual watches to cover different needs and collect them with fervor. But sometimes people get too caught up in the prices of watches and their technical features. Does adding a couple of extra zeroes at the end of the price automatically make something better? Does your next watch actually “need” a quadruple tourbillon? It’s entirely up to you! For me, I like to have a range of different watches in my collection. As such, a healthy part of it is comprised of microbrands.

Now, RZE is no stranger to the pages of Fratello. Rob has written about a couple of its previous releases here and here. If you take a quick look, you’ll see that Rob was suitably impressed with those watches too, so I was particularly keen to take a closer look at the Valour Chronograph. Where the Endeavour and Resolute both used automatic movements, the Valour uses a Meca-Quartz movement.
