New pickup!!
Hi all, just wanted to share with you guys a new pickup, the Tudor North flag!!
It was pretty much a impulse type buy... I was actually thinking for a long time about getting a grand Seiko quartz model, but when it camedown to it i just couldn't pull the trigger on it...i hate to admit it, but it being quartz did factor into the difficulty i had in committing to it, especially at it's price. Meanwhile the North flag had always been in the back of my mind side it's introduction in 2015...i liked the integrated bracelet and the movement. Fast forward to May this year, and after deciding not to go wth the gs quartz, i start to look around to see what else is available in a similar price range, and the North face pops into my mind again ... after checking out the piece, i find that it's price is really not that much more than the grand Seiko quartz i was considering. So after trying it out a few weeks ago i just pulled the trigger!! Overall i have to say I'm very impressed wth the fit and finish. Its a very precisely machined watch with very sharp clean lines. I'll post more of my impressions and pictures after i gain some more wear time wth the piece...Attached are some quick pics i took today.   Sent from my SM-G935W8 using Tapatalk |

Congrats. It's a nice watch. You could feel its presence as it carries a bit weight. The case is a bit thick but acceptable. One of the things I am very impressed with this watch is its accuracy. It keeps very accurate time day after day
