Tudor Chronograph TIGER! opinions???

I acquired a tudor Tiger Chronograph about a year ago, it has this almost luminescent Orange face and black bezel. I've seen Tudor Tiger's before, but mainly with the pearly white face and black sub-dials, but I have been informed by a Friend within the industry that only 4-5 are in this country. Has anyone seen another Orange Tiger? How much are they selling for now? I paid £250 for mine, and yes it is real, just it fell upon me in stranger circumstances!

Here are some Pics!

Welcome to the forum Rob!
People are here that know a lot more than me about Tudor Tigers, I'll venture to say you got a prize.

You certainly don't see many orange dials very often. Not sure of production numbers though. Tudor chronos came w/ many dial and bezel variations.

I really like that orange dial with the black bezel. Very sharp.

Sell it to a Princeton alumni and I bet you could push for a huge price!

Great watch.

That's different... I like it. Congratulations on the watch! In any case, it sounds like you got a great deal whether it be rare, or 'run of the mill'.

I'd say you got a great watch at a great price. I would pay that for one in a heartbeat. They are as good as any chrono made

I saw one on Ebay about 7-8 months ago but on a bracelet, with all the boxes/papers.

It went for just over a grand so yours is a pretty good buy.
