Tudor Style Fluted Bezel

I haven't seen any threads on this new release from Tudor so I figured I start one.

I really like this watch as it goes back to the days where Tudor made watches that looked liked Rolexes but with their own little touch added to it.

IMO the Style Fluted Bezel is a classy dress watch in a bigger case than the Datejust without a cyclops.

I'd like to see Tudor go back to the days of replicating Rolex watches and give people the option of a really nice watch that they can afford.

I'd like to see what clasp is on this watch.

The style fluted bezel in SS with the blue dial in 38mm will be my next watch.

I agree but I still like the new style & the way Tudor is reverting back to the old days.

I think this would be cool with the date at 6 and a Cyclops over it.

THAT would set it apart from Rolex and still have the advantage of a magnified date window.

I like it better than the existing Style and Classic. Don't think it's for me, however.

Agreed, but sadly Tudor hasn't used the cyclops for years, on any new model. Movement is too small for a 41mm watch with the date that far in. It's almost halfway to the centre of the dial.

I'm bumping this thread cause I want to know what the MRSP is for the watch too. LOL The bracelet looks hefty looking on the Tudor site. I suppose we'll have to wait to find out. If I'm reading the description correctly, the fluted bezel comes in stainless steel & only the yellow gold one comes in 18K. Is that what others are interpreting too? If this is the case, it will be much cheaper than a DJ of similar looks. I wonder if the blue dial can be added to the smooth bezel option? That would be awesome for me. It might be, I think the date window is at the same location for both.

.......

I am hoping Tudor introduces older style models with a regard to their Chrono line (non-Tiger 79260, 79270 and 79280)...would love to see those come back in a 41mm case!
