Tactical Frog seems to have emerged in the early 2020s somewhere in China as a sub-brand of Heimdallr. Their main signature: solid and functional watches, with a design often inspired (or even copied) from iconic models (in my case, the Tudor FXD), but at a much more accessible price than established brands. My opinion and those of the other reviews on this site concerning this model converge: it's a real "banger" for its price! Certainly, it has no legitimacy, but for those who cannot afford the original Tudor, it's a very accessible good deal (less than 200 euros, or even less). What strikes you right away is its lightness due to titanium. The movement is the Seiko NH35, a real tractor (drift of 4 seconds per day on my copy), whose real flaw is the incompatibility with a thin watch. Note the dial's darker blue than the bezel, which itself is bidirectional but with very weak clicks (often due to the titanium). The lume is very good, and of course, it's sapphire crystal. I enjoy wearing this watch, which easily blends in, with its inspired look and high-quality craftsmanship. I appreciate its 42 mm diameter, which I think is ideal for a diver. The chrono version might be worth a look.
