I think it's more about the shape of you wrist than the size.
My wrist is 6.75 inches but flat and rectangular, which is an advantage for lug to lug length. |

When my friend tried mine on both links went straight down and it looked like 4 spikes sticking out if the side of his wrist, not a good look... Congrats to all the new P01 club members. I've been enjoying mine for a month now and I love it. |

I have a 7.5-7.75 inch wrist and have no issues with the size of the watch.

Yes, I am having the same problem. I am somewhere between a 7.5 to 8 wrist and the 2nd to last hole on the strap is a bit too tight, and the last adjustment is loose.

I might order one of the rubber bands that’s been posted here and try to swap and size accurately. Won’t feel bad in putting an extra hole in a cheaper replacement band, but I’d rather not ruin the original band.

So here’s a pic of the P-01 vs the AP 44mm ROO
Lug to lug it’s about the same... the width is smaller vs the AP. And you can see the thickness... |

Anyone in the U.K. interested there is one in Ernest jones Oxford. Tried it on and surprisingly liked it. Not sure if I will pick it up however. One thing I will say is it feels less thick than the normal black bays albeit it wore wide on the wrist.
It was very comfortable and the strap was lovely. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk |

I was talking to our local Tudor AD the other night. He told me they'd had a PO1 returned due to the date sticking when it changes and being slightly out of line in the date window. He has also heard of others being returned at a different AD. Sounds like the GMT fault has spread.

My date also isn't centered perfectly but at the moment it's not a problem for me.

I know we are all happy about the in house movement but some of me wishes Tudor suck with the modified top grade ETA 2824-2. They could have easily upgraded it further to add a balanced with a silicon hair spring and the watch was always capable of achieving Chronometer specs. |

I noticed the same thing regarding thickness. The full sized BB watches appear to sit tall on the wrist since the bottom of the watch is flat (this is not an issue on the BB58). The P01 has curved lugs so it appears to hug the wrist better. |

Thank you. It’s was a much nicer watch than I expected it to be and I liked it a lot. Unfortunately I have spent a lot recently so couldn’t justify it right now but if I see one next year when I can I may just get one. it’s so different you can’t help but like it when it’s on.

I wore my P01 for a good portion of the day yesterday and really enjoyed it. I am going to give it more wrist time.

Hey Pete,
What are your thoughts on what this guy did to connect a Tudor Heritage rivet bracelet? Looks like they had to fabricate a link to connect it, no?

I picked mine up mid-December. I was able to have my dealer order it for me. I was told (according to the Tudor rep.) that after the New Year they would be harder to get.

I missed this thread. I got mine in November. I have a 7 inch wrist and this watch fits well. I just can’t wait for Tudor to introduce rubber straps. Off the shelf straps won’t work because they’ll be too long due to the extra steel fittings on either side of the case.
This is one seriously robust and unusual watch which won’t appeal to everyone thankfully! |
