Black Bay?
Good Day All,

I am thinking about picking up a Tudor Black Bay, I never owned a Tudor before but the red is calling my name, Any thoughts?






Take care,

Eric

whilst its an amazing watch I can't help but think it'd look nicer a touch smaller!

it's one big big watch which to me doesn't suit the classy look of it!

Not crazy about the thin bezel font or crown, but like the red and gold, but if you really like it you, know what to do.

IMHO the Black Bay is one of the nicest Tudors, ever. This reference blends
Classic details with modern design quite well. Top drawer.

Do it!! I tried it on when I was at the AD for a 116610LN. It was so gorgeous in person that I planned on purchasing it with the 116610LN...then I saw the 116613LN serti dial and bought that instead and let the other 2 go....

You won't regret getting it 1 sec. The only thing I regret about mine is selling it.

So Eric, what's the consensus?!? Going for it?? May make it my first Turdor too, however the heritage chrono grey dial I love too...

Just feel i'd get bored of either way too quickly :/
