Tudor Heritage Advisor discontinued?

It looks like the Heritage Advisor has been removed from the Tudor website. I guess it’s one of the 2022 discontinued models.

While I’m not surprised, I am disappointed. It’s one of the Tudor models I’d like to pick up at some point.

Tudor Heritage Advisor discontinued?

It was Tudor’s most complicated watch. Keep in mind the alarm module was in house but the movement it was typically attached to was a 3rd party ETA. Shame that it’s gone but maybe some day they will make the Black Bay Advisor.

I liked the design of the advisor but here is where the thickness argument was valid as it is technically a dressier watch.

I considered one in the past. The alarm sound was lacking for me. They aren’t too hard to find in the used market. Neat watch though as mechanical alarm watches are a relative rarity.

I love the Heritage Advisor and it's a shame that Tudor have become almost synonymous with the Black Bay line.

My review of the Advisor is here:

Maybe they'll return with a better dial design - with minute markers round the outside (where the 15-minute alarm markers are now) instead of on the inside, partially obscured by the minute hand and subdial.

That's too bad. Always thought it was a neat watch with a useful function. A little pricey though.

I tried to like the Advisor and tried it on at my AD numerous times in all configurations. Just did not work. They are in the second hand market if you should want one.

Yes, I generally see them listed for about $1k under retail -- so about $5k or so. I don't think the change in production status will make a huge change since they've never been particularly popular anyway. I may pick one up at some point, but there are a couple other in-production watches I'm a bit more interested in at the moment (and for less money) -- I just picked up the BB58 925. I'm also interested in the BB Ceramic, the new BB Pro, and the Pelagos FXD -- so yeah, the Advisor is low on the list right now, but it is still there. I have a couple inexpensive vintage alarm watches (Poljot and Seiko), but nothing that compares to the Heritage Advisor.

This. Would have picked one up if it was priced in line with the Black Bay.

They have slowly phased out the "heritage" name on just about everything. The Heritage Chrono is the only one left, and I'm sure its days are numbered. I hope they keep/update it somewhere in the lineup with new movements and bracelets.

Pre cell phone, I used to LOVE my watches with alarms. They were so darn useful!

I look forward to it. The only Chronograph I am truly interested in
