Very reasonable prices indeed. They could easily have charge 25% more for the Black Bay. Thanks for the info.

If the price was any higher, I'd rather buy a preowned Sub ND instead.

Thanks for the info. I like both, but will eventually get the BB with a bracelet.

Just have to figure out how to get one in the US...Probably have to get it in Canada next year when I plan to travel.

My dream watches are coming out of Tudor now, Rolex has forsaken me for 80 year-old pilots who like roman numerals????

Excellent point. Perhaps this is the beginning of a split within Rolex to offer a sportier range with reasonable prices and features we've asked for over the years in the US (assuming the rumors are true).

So that means it will be $5k in canada? I paid US$4700 for a rolex sea dweller in 2005. seems expensive. isnt the tudor heritage chrono about $4k?

Looks like I'll be getting a Palagos once they go grey......the exchange rate isn't TERRIBLE right now, so it should be OK.

Black Bay for me. Ideally i'd like to see it in person before purchasing but seeing as how Tudor don't sell in the UK i'll have to take a leap of faith!

I took that leap of faith with the Heritage Chronograph and it exceeded my already high expectations.

The prices on the new Tudors seem very reasonable in relative terms.

Totally agree on the Heritage, which is the same price point as the Pelagos.

I will have the Pelagos in my collection by the end of the year...

I agree. Give me any of those Tudor's over any of the Rolex subs now in production.

Very competitive pricing, Tudor/Rolex are looking at two different markets, quite clever

I'm pretty sure the Black Bay (strap) will be my next purchase!! I was never really blown away by Tudors, but the new Black Bay is stunning. Can't wait!

Definitely Black Bay for me. With the exchange it's roughly mid 3's to low 4's. Very reasonable. I will take which ever I can get (strap versus bracelet) but would like to have both options. I was going to get a Heritage Chrono, but I think I'll hold off and get the Black Bay first. I don't think Rolex realizes how much business they may be losing by not having Tudor in the US. Maybe the enthusiasm for these watches may sway them to finally return stateside.

The both look great for the price. I'm hoping for a black insert on the Black Bay at some point. I may change the hands out also, so it looks like the original.
