David Beckham could essentially wear anything and still look ridiculously good, but his wardrobe has become decidedly less colorful over the years. That is, unless you take a look at his bold Tudor watch collection.

Throughout the summer, at the World Cup and Wimbledon, he showcased a number of bold timepieces from the Swiss brand. The same was true when he turned up to an Inter Miami training session on Tuesday, where he pulled on a Flamingo-inspired Tudor Black Bay Chrono.

And before you ask why it’s got flamingo in the name but isn’t pink: The “Flamingo Blue” model actually takes its cues from the vivid turquoise associated with the tropical habitats of flamingos, rather than their feathers, giving the chronograph its unmistakable dial.

It’s a suitably Miami-ish color for a watch that Tudor itself describes as having a “South Beach vibe,” and it certainly marks a change from the usual black, blue, and silver chronographs.

The $7,000 watch comes in a 41mm stainless-steel case that’s 14.4mm thick, so this is not exactly a shrinking violet. It’s finished with contrasting black chronograph counters and a fixed bezel with a tachymetric scale. There’s also a date window tucked away at six o’clock, while the whole thing is topped with a domed sapphire crystal.

Inside is Tudor’s manufacture caliber MT5813, an automatic chronograph movement with a column wheel and vertical clutch. It’s COSC certified, has a silicon balance spring, and offers around 70 hours of power reserve, so it’s considerably more than just a pretty face. The watch is also water-resistant to 200 meters but, as Beckham shows, can just as well be used for a kick-around.

The bracelet is perhaps the most traditionally Tudor part of the whole thing: a five-link stainless-steel number, finished with a T-Fit clasp that allows the wearer to make quick adjustments without tools.

Paired with his tattooed arm, sunglasses, navy T-shirt, and shorts, the bright-turquoise dial manages to look surprisingly at home upon Beckham’s arm. It’s sporty, a little bit flashy, but, most importantly, doesn’t look like he’s tried too hard.
