I am more than sure that some day,the 2 brothers will reunite over a coffee

I am not surprised.

I'll make sure to let you know when I am travelling south, and do remember to drop me a PM when you travel north.

Engi, the bracelet should have the fliplock clasp, since the bracelet has the middle link polished. The earlier version of the bracelet, with a non-fliplock clasp, has a brushed middle link... (two rather than three links polished) but let's wait for the OP to post a picture to be certain. I am also curious.

Best,

Anders

Sure! The clasp is the fliplock version.

Thank you everyone! I'm kind of mad, I found a chip in the crystal though... The seller wants me to send it back, I just want $150 to get the crystal replaced... Currently, I'm going through paypal dispute as we speak.

Huge Congrats. I know I might be crazy I prefer them over the Daytona because of the date function. Both have their places though. I love that watch.

HACKNSACK44 · 23 May 2012, 09:20 AM

Congrats!!

Brenngun · 23 May 2012, 10:07 AM

Nothing poor about that watch my friend. I've owned both a Daytona and Tudor Chrono at the same time. I only have the Tudor now because I liked the addition of the date. It squeezed out the Daytona for wrist time and so the Daytona had to go. I can't count the number of times I've seen and heard Daytona owners wish it included a date. Enjoy that top notch watch .......

PeteNYC13 · 23 May 2012, 10:28 AM

First off - it's a different watch and not fair to compare it to the Daytona, it's gorgeous in it's own right and no reason to try and justiffy it.
You don't buy a Nissan and say that it's similar to Infiniti at a percentage of the cost - it's what it is and you enjoy what you like and can afford.

Second off - How can I get a Tudor in the US? I love this one and one of the current models, the Fast Rider. I want it, I want it, I want it!! :)
I don't see a lot of Tudors in the "for sale" section :(

Congrats, beautiful! I wish Rolex would add a date to the Daytona so that I could consider one.

If it is just a small line on the crystal, you could try with diamond past.

Beautiful watch by any name and made all the better by it Rolex affiliation.

travisb · 24 May 2012, 06:27 PM

Congrats!

The contrasting subdials work so well on that one paired with the black bezel.

SALTY · 24 May 2012, 08:29 PM

Very nice. Maybe it could be called "Smart Man's Daytona" and this from a Daytona owner!

The only problem I have with this watch is now I want one! That is the perfect color combination. I had a chance to buy one just like it about 15 years ago for only $700. Coulda, woulda, shoulda.
