Hello trf

Hi, I'm new to the site and am currently trying to do some research as to which watch I should purchase. I really like the look of the Tudor Heritage Chrono but don't know if it would be appropriate for my first major watch purchase. Any thoughts on this matter would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.

I love that watch and have been considering it myself. I think it's a lot of watch for your money and a great choice to start your collection. Good luck !

Welcome to TRF!
You've found a great place to research...
The Tudor Heritage would make a great start..Excellent value for money!
Take your time and learn a little, perhaps also visit your local AD and try on a couple.
Enjoy the boards,
Rob.

Thanks Rob. I was also considering the GMT II ceramic but I would have to pay double for it. I don't mind spending more but am really trying to get the most bang for my buck.

Understandable.......But to be honest, pick the one you like best versa the one that comes in as a second choice!
You'll be less likely to flip and you'll have more satisfaction knowing you have the one on your wrist!
