New tudor
Today i have owned my new Tudor GMT for nine days. Having worn a Rolex GMT since 1967
until today. When i ordered my watch it was maybe two weeks wait. When i opened the box, WOW what a stunning watch. (no Buyers remorse) plus it gains close to a second a day. My GMT II black and blue never got that close. Now for the nit pickers. Maybe they are just going by what they see on line with pictures. No crown guard. In my 51 yrs wearing Rolex's from the Day Date to the Air King. the crown guard has never saved me from a serious bump on the bedroom door or in my shop. The rivets i cannot see unless i really try and turn my wrist. TO thick, i don't notice it. The clasp is fine. Just remember one thing. The ego is a very expensive thing to support, usually it takes you in the wrong direction. Plus i have $5,300 that i saved. So if you want the Tudor you won't be sorry, so get your name on a waiting list at your AD. wayne in Albuquerque |

I have had mine for over a month now and it has completely taken all my wrist time over my 216570. It really is a great watch and supports my ego just fine.

I have had mine two weeks now and absolutely love it. I even looked at it beside a a white gold blro and concluded that if money were no object I would still prefer the Tudor.
