Tudor OEM accessories

Hi,

I know there are lots of threads on the black bays these days, the new release seems to be a hit and has kick started an interest in the red and blue models as well.

My question relates to purchasing Tudor accessories. Is it as simple as placing an order directly with Tudor/Rolex specifying what I want?

For example, I plan to purchase the BBB as soon as I can. I will purchase it with the bracelet but would also like to source the leather strap with deployment and a ranger bracelet as well. I have seen some threads with black bays with ranger bracelets and think it looks fantastic without the end links as an option.

I'd love to have the option to switch between the standard bracelet, ranger bracelet, leather strap and nylon as well. I think each option give the watch a unique look.

If the option to purchase directly from Tudor/Rolex isn't there, is the only option surfing the classifides or aftermarket? Also note I am just outside Toronto so the RCS in Toronto would be a good option. I used the search function and couldn't find anything on this topic, if this has been discussed before, please point me in the thread direction.

Thanks in advance for the help.

If you own, say, a BB on bracelet, then they will sell you the leather strap and deployant no problem, but they won't sell you the Ranger bracelet if you don't own a Ranger. So basically you have to already own the model for which you want to add the options. In Hong Kong anyway, but I imagine this is international policy.

You might try your AD. I have a Ranger and love the camo fabric strap. I inquired as to cost and if he could source it. The AD could get one for only $180!! When this one wears out, I'm reviewing other options.

Thanks guys, that's helpful. Sounds like my plan will come to fruition and I'll just need to source a ranger bracelet. Or, better yet, get a Ranger and a BBB. Problem solved.

Thanks again.
