So after coming out of a meeting this afternoon, I saw I had a missed called from my old rolex AD, they left a message to say they had the new Tudor Chrono in, and was wondering if id be interested in one.
Unfortunately they were closed time I got the message, I'll pop along tomorrow to have a look, not sure what colour they have, may be both???
Anyone else got one yet? can't remember seeing many incomings??

I was offered one but since I have the 116500, i turned it down as too similar. Great watch though and a bargain IMO! Cheers...

Totally agree, was offered a day or two after release it’s a very very good watch I just had higher priorities on my watch list.

I picked one up just after release.

Really love it. I collect mainly chronographs so was delighted add this latest offering from Tudor.

A very good watch and great value but very easily available, my three local Tudor AD's have been in touch to offer either colour dial.

So my advice don't buy one unless you love it.

I want the white dial so bad but can’t get it at retail..

Diet Daytona is such a great watch for the price!

Fell in love upon sight, for me I don't see it anything like a Daytona. If anything, looks more like an Omega Chrono.

Tried one on. Would have bought had it been on a steel bracelet. Terrific value for just over $5 grand. The chamfering is outstanding. Love the brushed lugs.

Ok thanks for replies, I'll pop and have a look, no harm in that is there???

, may pick up a new work watch as I could do with one..probably a seiko

I tried on the black with bracelet and was available. Looked awesome. Just wore too heavy and thick for my wrist. I wonder how legible the white is for anyone whose eyes are 50+ years-old!

I would say more legible than Daytona, but the big snowflake hour hand does a job covering the subdials so double edge sword.

OOOOppps seems I missed heard the message, was actually for the new ceramic!!

Craigdwh · 6 June 2021, 12:48 AM

i'll buy one pre loved for a discount.

I love mine I picked it ups the weekend it came out. I called my AD he told me he had one and it was mine if I wanted it. I choose black since I have the 116500 in white. It does look like a omega.

The Matte black is so beautiful IMO
