"Come to Harrods we had an exclusive Tudor release, sort of"
I believe that it is to launch the new and improved watch room which opens also on the 25th

It looks really nice. It's amazing what a little change in colour can do.

If one were to get this watch and send it to a trusted independent Service provider and have the seconds hand removed, would Rolex/Tudor add the "standard" Black Bay seconds hand if you sent in for service (and paid for it of course)?

The first thing you notice is that its green... obviously! But no one has seemed to notice that the reading is feet first. Other BBs are metre first.

Cool watch. I might have pulled the trigger given the opportunity. I must say I’m a Pelagos guy at heart though.

Tudor harrods all sold with 400 on waiting list for next batch in the new year

Hiya,,,
just got off the phone to a very nice chap at Rolex/Tudor in Harrods,,,
So no suprise that the 100 pieces have all sold and there is a list of 400 people wanting one so they have closed the list until they receive more in the new year!,,,,,,
So there will be others but chap couldnt tell me how many,
oh well! worth a phone call,,,,,jay

This will be selling for up to a £1K premium, you really up for paying the going rate?

Harrods’ Black Bay LE?

Amazing watch, the combination of bezel, bracelet and subtle green writing and second hand tip make it the best yet

there are way too many variants of the BlackBay.. why won't Tudor release a submariner instead of changing the bezel every 3 months??

Saw it at Harrods yesterday during my overnight visit in London. Supposedly they just put it out on display. Of course they didn't sell me one and the wait list is closed. I would of bought it on the spot! I hear some people are #700 on the wait list. The racing green color and hint on the dial is superb.

He said I can try calling back in January, in other words meaning good luck on getting one.

The list that they had was well over 1000 and yesterday alone the switchboard was rammed with calls to Harrods all asking for it.
Here’s a few macro to show the detail and quality

I don't usually do green on watches.

But in this case, I will make an acceptation.

Its a cracking looking watch.

Congratulations, to all you lucky owners.
