Oops, I did it again!

So, I left my Sub at Rolex AD today and knowing it would not be on my wrist for almost a month, I was pretty depressed.

On my way home I dropped in another Rolex AD and guess what I picked up!!







It's Tudor Date + Day 23010 with diamond, and I was surprised at their low retail price and on top of it the dealer gave almost 25% discount.

It is a beautiful watch to look at and now I won't be watch-less for the next month.

I needed a dressy watch for daily purpose so I am very happy man :)

I am now doing some research on the Tudor brand. It seems to hold its own place in the history of Rolex watches.

My Rolex Sub purchase was a pre-owned, and it felt good when I had a Rolex on my wrist, but buying a brand new quality watch today was another feeling.

I guess it's because I knew it is authentic, I didn't have to look vigorously at the warranty card serial numbers. It was just one smooth experience.

Thank you!

Can't believe how comfortable this watch is on my wrist. It almost feels like I do not have a watch except for its weight. It's that comfortable.

Very satisfied, although, after my Sub comes back, my fiancé might take it away from me. She loves the look of it.
