Friends... I picked up a bit of magic. Tudor Rose Content

I discussed this with my Dad and had to complete the Rose trio even though he’s been eyeing the newest Tudors. I do really like all the newest Tudors as well but there is something magical in these very limited run roses, the Black being the most rare followed by the Blue then Red. I’ve owned 3 in house Tudors and I just prefer greatly these Roses. I saw the prices coming down as people were in a rush to get the latest and greatest with the 58 and GMT. I have a 6 3/4 inch wrist and this watch fits me like perfection and the Rose and Smile just make it special. Glad to have this and I picked it up while the world was distracted a bit but the world will come back around. I now have the trio! It’s great fun!

Yes I love the gilt Dials but there is something elegant about the clean black and white combination on the dial-its a tuxedo look and It speaks to me. Some have said it’s sterile, I think it’s a classic look and in person it’s more obvious. Also some will say Black Bays are too thick. This watch with calipers measures 12.7mm my Sub measures 12.5. Too thick on the roses is an illusion.

The blue is just perfect and certainly makes it look all class. Congrats.
I might just have to explore getting one to go with my GMT and Pelagos...tempted
