I ordered a SS bracelet for my Tudor GMT last October. Finally broke down and ordered an Everest rubber strap. It arrived today...very pleased!

I will give my AD another month while I see how I like the watch on the rubber strap and cancel if the rubber works out. My instant response is extremely positive! What do you think?

wow! this looks cool!

I have a feeling you're going to cancel before the month is up. It looks really good.

Pretty much...can’t believe it’s been ten months since I ordered it. The AD has followed up numerous times; a couple of weeks ago the Tudor rep said “soon”. Not holding my breath at this point.

I received my Everest this week and after wearing it I doubt I will go back to the bracelet. I may try their leather strap.

I wouldn't cancel the ss bracelet.
It's really nice and you'll have rubber and the steal once it comes in.
Sounds good to me.

I probably will, but I’m just frustrated that a simple item like bracelet (a Tudor) should take ten months. As many here probably know, Tudor used to supply both the bracelet and fabric strap. Guess I resent what appears to be obvious profiteering by Tudor/Rolex. I just don’t feel valued as a customer!

I like the look the rubber gives the watch but I wouldn’t cancel the bracelet, it’ll be nice to have both and switch as you’d like.

You've waited this long so keep waiting. You'll have both great options. I can't understand why they just can't send one out right away.

That is unbelievable...I can't believe it's taken this long.

That said, I'm a huge fan of how leather looks on this reference.

Looks great! I just put my BB on a StrapCode rubber strap. It’s no Rubber B or Everest, but so far, so good! It’s extremely comfortable. Honestly, I think Tudors look great on both rubber and leather straps. Hope you enjoy it!

Odie-r · 4 August 2019, 07:24 AM

Nice. I dig it!

I bounce between Everest rubber, leather, and oyster in a couple watches. I would keep the order on. When you return to steel it's a treat.

10 months for a bracelet is absurd. It’s the same bracelet as many other black bays. IMO your AD just isn’t giving you proper service in this situation. Go elsewhere.

Just order the strapcode Tudor bracelet for $100 and have it in 2 days from Amazon, then picked the $600 savings.
