purveyors

English to Chinese Social Sciences Sports / Fitness / Recreation Lady watches
It is our duty as {purveyors} and pundits of fine wristwear to help you identify those timepieces that belong in your collection - the pieces that really matter today, and will continue to matter generations down the line. Occasionally we forget, though, that behind every great man's watch, there is is a great woman's watch. And today, we are here to bring you some of the finest wristwatches on the planet, for your better half.
注:这里的our指《福布斯》杂志。

有可能!
不过,感觉这里的purveyor与其的一般意思不一样。查了英英和英汉词典,发现均无适用的意思。

或者媒体人?

資訊提供者

Purveyor 有<供應商/ 代理商>的意思,除了供應/代理實物外,還可以是資訊。
根據Longman Dictionary of Contemporary English:

purvey (verb)
to supply goods, services, information etc to people


《福布斯》雜誌常提供手錶的資訊予讀者,而《福布斯》為一本知名的商業雜誌,所提供的資訊都有權威性,得外界認同。所以作者稱呼他們的雜誌團隊為<purveyors>和<pundits>。

可以譯作: 我們作為腕錶資訊提供者...

有意思的是两个词都是复数
Note from asker:
对应于前面的out,应该是《福布斯》杂志的编辑读者等。
对应于前面的our,应该是《福布斯》杂志的编辑记者等。
