As per the title, if you already owned a Grey/Black Tudor Heritage Chrono, would you buy the Blue THC as well or is one enough?

Or, would you sell the Grey/Black for the Blue.

Interested in opinions from everybody.

Well if one owned a 7032/0 would they add a 7169? They are made after different vintage references so why not? For me the answer is yes but of course I still will always prefer the original old ones! Cheers,

PS- Love the new blue!! My favorite of the new Basel releases.

ob1 · 30 April 2013, 08:16 PM

I agree with Ken. And the blue is my favourite new release as well. Just looks so right

Chris B · 30 April 2013, 08:27 PM

As above

For me, two Tudor chronos is too much. I would sell the gray one and buy the blue one. Personally, I like the blue one a lot better. I would also add a cyclops over the date.

They are both great watches, so you can't go wrong. Good luck.

mcavana · 1 May 2013, 12:32 AM

i personally wouldn't want both... kinda like buying the same exact super car twice... in different colors.

landroverking · 1 May 2013, 05:00 AM

I love the looks but would never buy THC because of the movement

Dan Pierce · 1 May 2013, 05:06 AM

Love the THC blue but would have a hard time justifying buying it since I own a grey dial already. Although I might still try to find a good excuse.

I agree Ken! Both are Great watches :)

SohAIS · 1 May 2013, 05:22 AM

dumb question but where did the wrist shot come from. They aren't out yet

FremStar · 1 May 2013, 05:56 AM

Yes! I own the grey 70330 and will be adding the Blue one as soon as I can get my hands on one! Looks tasty in person!

SohAIS · 1 May 2013, 07:09 AM

I like the sticks on the blue one as opposed to the gray one.

ThePayola · 1 May 2013, 07:42 AM

If it was my primary watch, I'd go with gray or black over blue. If I was simply adding another watch to my rotation, I'd consider blue.

IMO, a blue watch isn't going to work as well with as many of the things I wear as a more neutral color like black or gray with a black bezel.

roger0770 · 1 May 2013, 07:51 AM

too many watches, and only two arms... however, i don't think i can justify not having enough wrist time for any of them if owning too many watches.

ChallengerSRT8 · 1 May 2013, 07:54 AM

I want the blue but right now I am trying to determine which one I want.........the black or the grey dial.

tudorluv · 1 May 2013, 08:22 AM

admire both of them :))

What he said.
... and I'm lusting after a BB instead...

mikkolopez · 1 May 2013, 02:39 PM

I'd buy the blue THC and sell the grey/black THC and a kidney for good measure.

mks4 · 1 May 2013, 07:00 PM

They're too similar to me having seen them side by side. Plus, if you think about the cost to buy both, you're getting into territory where one could start to justify edging up for one nice vintage Tudor chrono or a number of other things for that matter.

HORNBLOWER · 1 May 2013, 07:45 PM

That's like saying that I wouldn't buy a snowflake because I have a Tudor Sub already. The Blue THC has a different dial colour, hands, nato strap, ref no. bezel insert. The only thing keeping me from the new Blue THC is funding...but that can change

I just bought a THC with a gray dial and had to make the same decision. Here was my thought process:

- If I bought a black one, would I ever wish I had a gray one instead? Yes.
- If I bought a gray one, would I ever wish I had a black one instead? No.

For me, gray was always the one that just looked right. I like the look of black, but I'm not in love with it. Fortunately, I found a gray one in perfect shape for the right price from a trusted seller. I'm happy.
