The price on the US Harrod's website does fluctuate and reflect the USD exchange rate. It was initially higher when this topic was posted, then dropped almost US $100 and now it's climbing a bit once again.

Just bought this strap for my harrod’s. Unfortunately I lost my Bergeon 7825 so I’ll have to wait a week before my new one comes. Will report back on how it looks!

I got #12,143. They seem to be going out in random order from the shipping center at this point. I'll be quite curious to see it on that Rubber B strap, seems like a good fit.

Why do you want to return it so soon?

Mainly the size. I have owned some older ETA movement, and the BB58s and they wear much better for me.

Loved the look of mine as well, but after some wear time I sold it. Was just to big for me and too slab sided.

Im all in if this comes in the BB58 dimensions.

Received mine just after Veterans day. It took about three weeks from order date. Sat in NJ about a week, assume in customs. Shipping was $35, no other fees. One interesting point is the shipping box references Harrods L.A. wonder if that has something to do with no customs fees. Mine is #11985.

3 weeks, wow. I hope mine does not take that long... It's also been sitting in NJ for a few days. I was overly optimistic about the speed, after reading avout others getting theirs in only 7-8 days from order date.

The customs fees are baked into the price. Someone had a screenshot of the breakdown on the past page. Harrods LA is also actually just Farfetch LA, who Harrods partnered with a few years ago for e-commerce support. That's whose address was listed on my cc charge.

It is still available on the Harrod's website to order. The highest number posted has been 128XX. Perhaps the rumor of 13000 being the end number may be true.

Well now we see first hand when companies are willing to sell something VS just saying NO and there are 100 in the back lOl

I'm on the fence whether to buy this, love the green and dial colours on this watch

Just don't like the thought of not trying a watch on

It wears like the standard in-house 2016 Black Bay, so you can try that on.

If it’s a matter of wrist size, I would say 6.75” and above is fine. I wear mine on a Rubber B strap and the flush-fit of the strap minimises the heft on the wrist.

If production tops out at 13,000 it will be rarer than one year’s production of the Submariner…

I received mine today.

It took a little over a week, because it sat in NJ waiting for a few days, for their broker to complete customs clearance.

Like other recent orders, mine came with the full packaging: plastic bezel protector, stickers, and hangtag. No blemishes that I could find so far, but it had some adhesive residue on a few links. Weird.

Mine number is back in the 126XX's.

I was on the fence, but as it was my birthday yesterday I just ordered it and it arrived today.

Took to AD to have it sized and absolutely love it

Looks like they still have them for sale. How big was this stockpile they are sitting on?

I think the late owner of Harrods was using them as door stoppers.

Great watch, the gilt and green go well together. My only gripe is there isn’t any on-the-fly adjustment (easy link, t-fit, glidelock, etc) on this model or a few others from Tudor.

3550GBP > USD4,049, an arbitrage can be made!

Out of interest, what was the original price when it was first introduced?
