Back from vacation Part II (modem burner)

As stated in my "Part I" post earlier I was on vacation in Greece for a couple of weeks and of course had to visit a few ADs while I was there. Knowing that some AD's in Greece carry the Tudor line, I was actually interested in taking a closer look at the new Tudor Heritage Chrono. I won't bore you with the details but I will tell you that I wasn't able to find a Heritage but did end up coming back home with these beauties!!!!

Quick impression on the two peices:

GV: Beautiful in person, extremely comfortable, very nice symmetrical dial.





SUB-C: Considerably heavier than my 16610LV, bezel is outsanding (look & operation), anti-glare cyclops is great (every little detail counts!), glide lock is smooth, very nice updates all around.

Big Congrats on the 2 beauties

There are 2 AD's that carry the Tudor line in Athens and not everybody. In one of them you can still find BNIB 79260-70-80's.

I hope that you had good deals on them ( i see that the SubC is random serial one) and also you had a great time in Greece
