If you’re in the market for a new Tudor...

These were spotted today in the window of Emson Haig in Lakeside shopping centre, Essex (UK)EE72EED9-DB44-4389-8337-2D6DECBCBCC3.jpeg

Thank you! I've been in touch with them (they're obviously closed). Hope they return my message!

Some UK dealers have been told to keep an example of the 58 Navy Blue on bracelet to demo to customers but aren’t allowed to sell it for the time being. Hope that’s not one of those.

Does the tag on the back of the OG BB58 say ‘Not for sale’? Find it strange that it would say ‘For sale’.

Sure looks like it says “Not for Sale”.

I suspect they are both not for sale - to drum up interest no doubt

Amazing how much easier it is to find Tudors in the UK vs USA.

Those aren't display models at least judging from the time on the dials

There is a clear not for sale label on the back of the OG at least

My AD also has one in the window, with a not for sale tag.

I bet there are dozens of Tudor fans around each AD. Worldwide. No chance that there is a readily available BB58 Blue in the window of any AD around our “global vilage” at this moment...

I'm so done with new "popular" watches. What's the point? I see TS's asking over $5K...and retailers are closed.

I recall asking about the original BB58 and told there were 30 people on a list. Pffft

FYI this AD actually called me back just a bit ago. Super nice. The watch is not for sale. They’re on a wait list and will have available pieces in September. They will not ship to the US and you have to pick up in store, in person. I actually don’t mind their system and think the transparency is nice.
