Icon20 Tudor Hydro 1200 New Dial and Visit to new Rolex HQ

hi guys,

Off to the New Rolex hq ( West Malling ) tomorrow to visit the new premises, just round the corner from my office, which is fatal.....

Will be able to get my contact who works there to take me out for lunch if i play my cards right....

Go to have the dial changed in my Tudor Hydronaut 1200 from black to silver and to have a rubber strap fitted, free of charge of course.

I think the silver dial will make the red hour hand easier to see as i think it gets lost on the black dial.

will post pics after new dial is fitted tomorrow

Hope you all like it....

Hydro 1200

Hi Mark,

I totally agree on the red minute hand. I brought a black dial Hydro 1200 and loved it but could not tell time. The red minute had is a really poor design. I wish it was the same color as the hour and second hand. I flipped it after a day. It's to bad because it's such a great watch. Hopefully Tudor will get it right.

Best,

Rob
