Tudor Heritage Ranger

Hi,

I am looking to pick-up a Tudor Heritage Ranger.

Met with an AD today who offered $2700. Jomashop has it currently priced on sale at $2150, seems like a great price.

I read about Trusted Sellers on these boards. Thoughts?


Thanks,
Brad

Look up Takuya or Perpetualman88. Both terrific.

Go with a trusted TRF seller. There's a big jeweler currently selling Rangers at blowout prices on the classifieds right now.

Any other contacts? What would be a good price on this watch from an AD?

On strap, I would think you'd be looking for sub 2k.

I highly recommend him.

Ended up picking up the Ranger from an Tourneau in NYC. Got 15% of list, came to around $100-175 above grey market which I was fine with.

Is there anywhere you can buy OEM Tudor straps after market or do these have to be purchased through and AD?

Congratulations.

The straps sometimes come up for sale here, but it's easier to get them through an AD or RSC. They are expensive, though. For about 1/10 of the price of the OEM bund you can get this one from Rios, which I think looks and feels better. A few of us TRF Ranger owners have this one...

Yeah, AD quoted $250 for the leather and $180 for the canvas. Certainly pricey.

The Ranger takes a 22mm strap, correct?

What are other good after market strap makers?
