New Tudor MSRP

[harry in montreal]

a sub for 8500 is an insane amount of money. i am just old i suppose. i paid 4700 for my SD in 2005 and i thought i should have my head examined

I remember thinking "man you'd have to be crazy to pay $5,000 for a SS Rolex diver". Now they sell for that on the second hand market! At least the bracelet is nicer, I guess.

At least it looks like a trend happening here, you should be able to get back your original investment if you can hold on for 10+ years, i hope Tudor shares the same fate 10 years from now.

Im guessing 5k is how much a SS sub costed 10 years ago.

I paid 3200 for my first Rolex which was a Sub in 2005 brand new.

I seem to recall them costing 5K around 5 years ago. I could be a little off though.

5K around 5 years ago seems to be about right.

do you guys think that in a year Pelagos and black bay will be available for 25-30% off the msrp in pre-owned condition which brings the price to $2900 for Pelagos and $3150 for the Black bay

Just spoke to a dealer in canada who would ship the BB to me for their asking price...$3250.00 (yes, with bracelet)....2 month wait.

3150.00 CAD plus 12% sales tax for a blue bezel, same for a red, they are waiting for a shipment of Blue BB's. Dropping off my deposit tomorrow, yippee!

You realise this thread is more than two years old, right?

Not sure why this was dug up from two years ago, but might as well chip in with 2014 info. I tried on the Pelagos and Blue Bay at a Honolulu AD last week, and think they were $4125 and $3425, respectively. FWIW loved the Pelagos, thought the Black Bay was a little too thick. Had it been in a sub case with tapered Oyster bracelet might have picked it up.

wow thats pretty cheap compared to what other sellers are selling on the forum. I have seen them asking any where from $4250 to $4500

It's all about what people are willing to pay. Personally, there isn't a chance of me shelling out anything near retail - much less ABOVE retail

I'd guess in a year a lnib BB could be had for slightly under 3k, maybe 2750. I don't think that's a bad value. A lnib Pelagos for 3 would be a good value too.

But it's not hard to fathom, not that many get to the states, and there's a lot of demand as its new, different, and very cool, people like and want them at the moment.

Pretty sure the THC uses a 2892

I believe it's the 2894, which is the 2892 with the DD chrono module.

Mine is -2 sec/day so far.

Mine is also running a few seconds slow, but chronometer specs as well!

Picked up a brand new Tudor Blue Black Bay for $3750.00 back in July, in Canada.
