Do I see a vintage Tudor re-edition in this post?!  Vintage re-edition=Daos' sweet spot!  That's a good-looking piece of metal!  So, Jeff, will all the new Rolex Subs have ceramic bezels in colors matching their dials? 

Cheers,

Daos 

Thanks!!

...especially with that 'nato' strap.
No surprises with the black sub and explorer but the green sub?! I really don't know how I feel about this at all!!

is there a new explorer II?

the tudor looks very interesting.....

the new subs loook bigger but the size of the bracelet seems to remain the same......

cheers

Actually, my guess is that the size didn't change, but I'm still waiting for some infos...

Best,

Nicolas

there is very little difference.....

??

cheers

It makes me think to the thicker volume of the GMT...

To be confirmed.

But I'm not crazily in love with the new Sub...

Lucky me!



Best,

Nicolas

a difference in the size in relation to the bracelet....

we shall see...

cheers

I've been waiting for a long time actually my dream come true.

Thanks for this. I haven't been excited about a new Rolex for a long time, but this Tudor re-issue looks great.

I always assumed I would be getting Speedmasters for my boys' 18th bithdays, but the Tudor Heritage Chrono looks like it might a viable alternative; they can have the choice of watches and dials perhaps.

The only thing I am note sure of is the date display. I hate little date windows! Wish they had been brave and put a cyclops on it. Will need to see this one in the metal.

andrew,

you can actually attach a cyclops if you want to.
the one's on the GMT's, Subs, etc. are just glued on.
if you google it, you will find threads that show you how to remove the cyclops.
they also explain how it is attached.
i'm sure you can easily buy one for the tudor.

I have enough trouble putting protective films on mobile phones and Nintendo game screens (LOL), so I am not sure I would be attempting to modify a new watch.

Still, it's an interesting idea and good to know it can be done.

Andrew

What a beautiful chrono!

Ever since Tudor came back strong a couple of years ago, I had been longing to see them go back to their roots and history. I am glad they did because it is a knockout!

As for Rolex, those three models leave me with a somewhat bitter aftertaste, but we will have to wait to see them in the flesh.

Thanks for posting, Jeff.

Cheers,

I read on the website that it has a 39 mm case so that will do. There were quite some comments on the 36 mm case being to small, so this will satisfy a few customers. I have to say that I choose the II over the I for one reason because of its size. I love the Explorer II, but maybe today I would choose different. Furthermore I am glad that the Explorer I kept its great understated looks.

My only problem with the trend of oversized watches is,you only get a bigger case.
The watch movement always remains the same size.

This is like the oversized packaging supermarkets use(a con) to give you the impression you are getting more for your money.
However the size of the contents does not reflect the size of the box,in this case housing!

On a high,my 36mm Explorer 1 will now go up in price!!

The Tudor is awesome!!

What are production numbers like and are they considered limited/special editions?
