Unexpected incoming - Tudor Black Bay Harrods Edition

[Swiss Mad!]

So last October (2019) I called the Tudor boutique in Harrods (just out of curiosity more than anything) to enquire about the availability of their special edition Black Bay.

Spoke to a very nice young lady who took all my contact details & said currently (at that time) customers were experiencing around a 6 month wait.

Fair enough I said & that was that.

Tbh, I didn’t hold much hope as I had no previous spend history with Harrods & I got the impression the young S.A. was just paying me lip service and I imagined as soon as she put the phone down, the scrap of paper she’d just scribbled my details on was promptly filed in the trash!

Imagine my surprise then to receive the below email last Wednesday 3rd September 2020 completely out of the blue!

Its been a bit longer than the 6 months originally quoted but I’m not surprised what with the COVID situation and all.

Fair play though to Harrods, I really didn’t expect that - but wasn’t going to let the opportunity pass by.

Regardless to say, yesterday (Saturday 5th September) was spent travelling- it’s about a 300 mile round trip from my home city in the North down to London & back.

Unfortunately they won’t post the watches - it’s collection only.

Anyway, here’s a few pics - the watch is stunning in the flesh, another one pictures don’t do justice too.

I’m actually blown away by the quality of this thing.

That copper tone printing on the dial is stunning honestly and that green bezel is just beautiful.

Fair to say this ones a keeper

Cheers
