Tudor Sub Forum

Do you think there is enough interest in, and a large enough Tudor following to deserve its own sub forum?

Yes, especially Tudor has its own in-house movements starting from this year.

The only downside might be that the devout Rolex guys might not visit the Tudor forum, and a lot of the exposure that the Tudor watches get as they co-exist with the Rolex forum results in new Tudor buyers. Besides, the Tudor bashing that shows up regularly from users with brand insecurity is pretty entertaining. What would be do without the weekly "I don't get Tudor..." threads!

A Tudor Sub forum or a Tudor subforum?

Thank you for the contribution to the thread. Subforum auto corrected on my iPad so I went with it.

I think it can be split out... But does that mean a vintage Tudor subforum as well?

I'd much rather the question be asked differently; I don't see a benefit in having a Tudor subforum. Too many wouldn't see the posts I suspect where as with Tudor topics mixed with Rolex the uninitiated are being converted.

You make a valid point. How else would you ask the question?

How about "Would it be beneficial to have a Tudor subforum? Let's discuss why or why not?" PS. It's not too late to change the question.

Yes, I think it's long overdue but of course, the final decision rests on the mod/admin team.

That is a more eloquent way of saying it though I've never been accused of being eloquent.

I voted yes, because frankly there clearly is enough interest, but I have to admit I enjoy the one stop shop that we going. It's nice to see all the threads in the same place. So yes, definitely enough interest, but no I like things the way they are. I would inevitably miss some really interesting posts. In fact I can almost guarantee I won't be enjoying my most recent incoming if things weren't the way they were!

Anyone want to go through the almost 120,000 threads posted over the last 10+ years in the Rolex General Discussion forum and pull out all the Tudor threads for the new Tudor forum? Otherwise, we'd just end up with one forum for Rolex & Tudor and one for Tudor. Things are fine as they are.

Yet another reason not to separate to a subforum.

Where would one post a Rolex vs Tudor thread if they were split? The thought is giving me a headache already! I like the way it is now!

I love the mix that we have now. There are some Tudor models that I am really into and some I have no interest in. I like that I can see them all in the one place and read the posts of the models I like when they pop up. I would be much less likely to go into a dedicated Tudor sub forum and therefore would miss a lot on the brand.
