Broken Tudor black shield bezel 😥

So his will be a warranty issue?
Or did it suffer damage from a drop or fall?

Sorry to see the damage!

Sorry to hear that Henry. Ceramic is the gift and the curse at times. Hope the cost is reasonable

Yikes! Ceramic bezel, sorry to hear about that. Unfortunately, I think replacement is quite pricey, at least it is on Rolex references.

Wow. That is still pretty surprising. I would be ready to pay for it but see if your AD can help you talk to Tudor about getting a break on the parts cost. Worth a try at least.

You didn't even dropped it? Just banged it real hard?

I hope it will be "relatively reasonable" to get it fixed.

Good luck and keep us posted

$700 is a bit of a sickner but not the end of the world, hopefully it won't spoil your future enjoyment.

Wow. Suprising it is that pricey. Wonder how much the pelagos bezel would be. That said it's a fragile design. There is no coverage around the bezel to protect it. I can imagine someone soon will crack their daytona c and it will be a $1500 shock

I cracked my DBLUE insert only (a hairline that was only visible to me)..not the bezel..and RSC charged me $500 just for the insert so $700 seems not bad for a full bezel

The irritating thing is you can't not repair it.

Super glue?
Just kidding
Sorry to see that

Will be interesting to see how the DaytonaC bezel fares
Unlike the Subs, GMTs, etc, there's no protection for the edges of that bezel
But then I haven't heard of disasters w/ the PM Daytona's with ceramic bezels, so maybe it'll be OK

I thought it would be in the $1500 range.......where I'm sure the Daytona bezel will be.
