Thinking about a Tudor Prince Date-Day

[AP8ESQ]

So, as title mentions, I have taken a liking to the old Prince Date-Day as a knockaround watch but don't know much about them. As a result, I turn to the wisdom of he forum for input. I know the newer Glamour Date-Day are a bit larger but the looks of the older Prince are more classic (imho) so that's the way I am leaning unless there is a compelling reason to look at the newer lineup.

I know that I should get what sings to me, etc. but realistically I can't go try one on at this point so really looking for real life experiences maybe in comparison to dj36, etc.

Thoughts?

Have you checked out the 76200?

Adam,

That's the exact watch I am looking at except blue dial. Thanks for the link and your review. May just have to pull the trigger on it.

I wear my dad’s 1969 Date + Day jumbo on a canvas strap as a weekend watch. The size, 38mm, is a bit more contemporary, and I really enjoy mine. I do, however, give my dad grief for not getting a Sub like all the other GIs at the p/x.

You'll be glad you did. MSRP in HK for a brand new one is HK$18,600 (about US$2,370) but re-sellers often add a few hundred on top as it's hard to find outside HK or Japan.
