Day off yesterday, went into San Francisco with my watch buddy "Baron Rojo" from this & a couple of other watch fora.
Checked out the Tudor line @ Shreve (so far the only AD in Bay carrying Tudor, note I just found out there are 2 more Ad's in the Bay, Burlingame & Milpitas, but those towns aren't as cool as San Francisco

) Very sharp watches, favorites were the classic/vintage re-issues, the 2 dive watches & the chronos.
The watches were so nice, & staff very pleasant I forgot to take pics....but you've seen 'em all anyways.
We took a lunch break for burgers & beers @ Johnny Foley's Irish Bar then went over to Tourneau & their Rolex shop....their used watches are very over-priced!
Me & the Baron.....

we just brought the watches we were wearing........

my pooch was unhappy she didn't go, she likes the city, burgers & beer

The baron & I looked so fab, gear & groovy, we asked the waitress to take another pic

Any particular pieces caught your attention?

There are more Tudor dealers in the Bay other than Shreve and Co.

Nice GTG

I PM'd BaronRojo a couple months ago to buy a DJ he had for sale, no response...

Very nice, I am heading to Carmel next week for 5 days for a little R&R, the Rolex AD also has Tudor there, looking forward to it.

Very nice. Looked like you guys had a good time.

DCheeta · 22 January 2014, 12:12 PM

Awesome, looks like fun!

I love Foley's, too. They have Kilkenny on tap there, which for some strange reason I can't find anywhere in New York. (I know - I'm just not looking hard enough..)

Hairdude1 · 22 January 2014, 12:25 PM
