Your enthusiasm is exactly on par with my experience when I acquired my first Tudor chrono. It's that feeling that makes this hobby so much fun.

I am ten times more excited about this watch than I was for my SS white Daytona. In fact, I sold the Daytona last week after buying the Tudor Tiger, as I knew it wouldn't get any wrist time in the rotation. The other thing this points out is that it's not how much the watch costs, but how much enjoyment it gives you that counts.

Very nice, and the faded insert will be even better.

Here it is with the faded bezel, boy, was that hard. I can't decide which I like the most. If you like, let me know what you think.

Faded bezel looks best in my opinion.

I think the faded bezel insert looks more natural.
