Tudor gold big block chrono for Only Watch '23
This looks incredible. Could we have a SS big block coming back again?
A friend sent me the link, somehow I missed the announcement. https://www.tudorwatch.com/en/tudor-...nly-watch-2023 |

Tudor gold big block chrono for Only Watch '23
Looks like Tudor is moving away from using the B01 in its chronographs and developing their own.

I’m looking forward to seeing the new chrono movement in future models.
And the piece itself is unreal. Gorgeous! |

Great looking chrono. I'd love to know the size and hope we see this in stainless soon as well.

Love it! I assume we will see something very similar available to the general public before long, similar to the ceramic only watch release not long ago.

That’s a great looking Chrono. I’m generally not a fan of all yellow gold but that looks fantastic. Is it a limited release and what’s the price?

I am a fan...I hope this is the beginning of bringing back the Tudor chronos of old with some updated touches!

A stunner. I'll bet the reaction will be enough to persuade Tudor into releasing this in stainless steel. Maybe a rotating bezel option too?

This will certainly be released as a steel model. The movement R&D wouldn't have been just for Only Watch.
Everything about this is perfect–even the lack of a Cyclops isn't an issue on this (as it is with many other Tudors) because they went for a black date wheel. It even has a proper Oyster bracelet instead of the slightly-disproportionate Oyster-type they used on the Heritage chrono. I'm unreasonably excited by the return of the word PRINCE. And yet… I'm angry at myself for being excited, because the publicly available version will almost certainly have a Snowflake hand, would probably lose the 'PRINCE' text, etc. |

The angled view is the best. At least visually this handily blows away every ceramic Rolex. If we get exactly this, except a steel case, but it's a huge 'if'. I'm very afraid the retail model will get a Snowflake hand (which would ruin it) or the Black Bay bracelet (which would clash, but just means you can wear it on a strap). |

I like how subtle the date wheel display is

Everyone responded either with 'can't wait to see it or" hopefully, they'll release it in SS. My question is.......which one of you is going to buy the gold version as pictured?? I doubt any.

Hopefully this is a sign we will see future chronos sans snowflakes.

You do understand they are only making one these? Having said that, if they offered that in a white dial variant I would.

Beautiful! As usual Rolex is way ahead of the competitors, a 40mm Explorer at W&W and now a 42mm chrono. The "new" fashion for smaller watches has already ended and I can only agree with it.

I like it and would consider buying one if they were regular production. Maybe we will see one in SS for everyone.
